	That's not news, pal.  But you're abusing a confidence.  

	It's wierd.  I used to think you could trust Deadheads just because
they were Deadheads.  Learned I was wrong the hard way.  Reckon you shouldn't
trust someone just because they're a member of the same community, eh, 
tgold@PANIX.COM?  BTW, how come you have such a boring  gecos?  Anthony
R. Gold, how...mundane...

	The real question was why did you need a very limited function 
made available only to contractually obligated IBM representatives?  Not
"will anyone violate their contracts and license agreements and send me
a copy of this.  I promise I only want it to Right Wrongs and Fight for
Justice."  The HWM is hard to find for a reason, and maybe we thought we could 
solve the real problem rather than your possibly misguided idea of the real 
problem.

Wrong. But please post here any request, let alone my agreement to it, that I
should keep anything private. BTW, maybe you forgot to mention that you set
the Followup-To in your post. It was probably just an oversight.

My information is in every news post, lmarco@panix.com (Lou Marco). But why
are you so rude? I will remain polite regardless of what you write about me.

I hope someone answers your question - I got the answer to mine.

BTW Version 1.78 of the Hardware Maintenance Diskette includes a creator for
a self-booting USB thumb drive. The software is available to Thinkpad users
for download from http://download.lenovo with no restrictions whatever. Maybe
we don't need to be contractually obligated to IBM to use Lenovo software :-)
