I hate it when a mistyped address gets you someone's personal page. For example, using .com instead of .org in http://www.agilemanifesto.com/ get's you this loser's page. I looked for a way to contact him directly so I could write an incendiary email but no path was available. Please die in a fire.
James, you aren't clever, you aren't cute, you're a bad person IRL.

Haven't tried any; the "challenges" make me wary.
Ordered a shop manual for my older car online expecting to get a PDF. Instead, I get an XP virtual machine image file and instructions to install a VM Box and run the app. I was up and running in under a minute. The XP "shop manual" was actually quite brilliant.
Don't now how this compares with the state of the art but this is still pretty good.

I'd love to see the agreement that lets them distribute XP.
Can you name names?

having them in an electronic format (DVD or an Instant Download) is a huge advantage over having a book since there is no getting oil or dirty hands on them
...and to interact with the actual content, you're still going to get "oil or dirty hands" all over your keyboard and mouse or worse, your touch device's screen. What advantage are they claiming exists exactly? Oh yeah, shifting the problem on the user. They no longer have any reason to send replacements for dirty manuals.

The PDF is usually a copy of a paper publication. What I got this time, was the equivalent of a "repair shop" database app for my 1999 model; XP era origin. They've down played the technical aspects and history.
I'd classify it as early multi-media; with graphics and primitive hyper linking (lots of cascading list boxes).

I also recently purchased a shop manual from the same site. The problem with the virtual machine approach is that I can't run it on a weak tablet in my garage.
I need to run it on a machine that has some horsepower. (pun not intended)
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

You could try RDP from your tablet into your main PC. (I have 100 ft cables if necessary). The flexible USB cameras work well with a weak device. The dust bunnies are "huge".

Only if you discard the olive.
And the Vermouth.
Oh, and the Gin / Vodka as well.
Now make the glass bigger, and fill it with chilled Elderflower Tonic.

It's pretty good, but this one is better: ASDA Extra Special British Elderflower Tonic Water[^] as well as nearly half the price (£1.20 / 500ml instead of £1.91). It's got a stronger Elderflower taste, which I like.
Hard to get hold of though: as soon as it hits the shelves it gets bought, so you have to be lucky and take a spare carrier bag ...

Maybe his disgust is due to the lack of gin or vodka.

That would be perfectly understandable.
