Unix documentation summary
>From Lepreau@UTAH-20 Sun Dec 27 04:15:27 1981
Harvard Science Center is all I came up with as a public source of
Unix docs. Thanks to Steve Dyer & Wally Wedel for the original
reference. It seems that the prices are ok for small quantities,
but not so good for larger quantities.

Harvard Science Center is a local distribution center
for all UNIX (V6, V7, PWB, 4.1BSD) manuals.

Harvard's prices for 4.1 manuals would require us to print 50 copies to
equal the price; therefore, it sounds like a good idea.
they split vol. 1 up into 2 volumes, 1A which is chapters 1,6,7, and 1B
which is the rest. 1A costs $10, and 1B costs $8.

I find the harvard prices an outrage at ~.04/page independent of
quantity. And the reproduction quality of the current stock is
mediocre.
Local copy shops will do 100 copies closer to .02/page.
