===========================
After the coming uses of hypertext in PR
advertising
will be in documentation.
Documentation For example, the budgeted cost for documentation
is 5% of budget supporting a complex high-technology industrial machine
=============== might be 4-6% of the total development cost. This figure
is similar to the 5% of the budget that the Department of
Defense reports for the documentation for their weapon
systems. (And we know how realistic that is!)
Actual cost is If you analyze the life cycle of a weapons system and the
10-100 times use of the documentation by sales, maintenance, customer
higher personnel (and the turnover in each area), the actual cost
====== of understanding and using most documentation often exceeds
the cost of the equipment itself. Why?
Cost of bad The real cost of transferring knowledge (i.e., training) is
documentation directly influenced by the quality of the documentation.
============= And if users can't easily find what they want, they
switch to more expensive forms of knowledge transfer --
instructors, seminars, courses, etc.
The cost of A college education, for example, costs over 100 times
knowledge that of the books that are required. Competence with
========= most software typically costs users many times the
purchase price. In the military, training costs always
seem to exceed hardware costs. What's the solution?
Benefits of The fundamental benefit of hypertext is organizing
hypertext formats information in formats that easily provide desired
================= knowledge to users, reducing learning time and knowledge
acquisition. If this is true, creating hypertext
formats for documentation is about to become a major new
industry.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
