vegachavez Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 There is no way i`m going to spend hours or days in front of the computer reading the EPIC manual for the A-10! Knowing this I went to Kinkos to get an estimate for a black and white copy of the manual. In short, it cost me $57 dollars and that`s with the holes for me to put in the binder. The manager said that should be the same cost across the nation. Because of its size you should get a discount ...so don`t forget to ask for the bulk discount. I know this is still a lot of money after paying $59 for a Sim, but think of the savings in eye surgery, heart attacks, and high blood pressure from sitting in front of the computer when you could be exercising. :book:

Spectre_USA Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 I think it's more likely that I get a heart attack from all the daily exercise I've been getting hereabouts the last week or so.

tusler Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 But it's so pretty in color! Pretty but like $400... For that kind of money I can buy a laptop at Walmart and have the manual in color on it while I am flying on my desktop system :music_whistling: Ask Jesus for Forgiveness before you takeoff :pilotfly:!

JaseGill Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I just have the manual on my Kindle (eReader). I can go to whatever page I like and read live there rather than needing a paper printed one. I must admit to printing certain parts of the manual though for off line reading as PDF's aren't amazing on the Kindle and its only B&W. J.
