I'm printing out the entire Sprint Protege PBX manual. All 10-odd sections. Plus the addendums. And the 5 sections for the voicemail. And a cheat sheet that I've whipped up on how to do quick mundane administrive things like reset Voicemail passwrods, fiddle with peoples display names, ("I don't know *why* your phone says "plonker" now! It must be a hacker!") and the like. It's all going into this HUUUGE three inch binder, and maybe one of the 3/4 inch binders that I thought of using, but found that it would not fit into.

There's also going to be a CD-R with the documentation in PDF format parked in the binder as well.. ::snicker::

The reason? Well, paper does not require electricity. You can leave it open to the page you want/need. You can write notes on it using this archaic device called a "pencil", which is made of some metal, some powered carbon called "graphite" (which is normally used in some nuclear reactors), and wrapped up in a wood frame so you don't get the carbon all over your hands. There's also a little chunk of rubber on the end to rub out the marks you've made with it too. You cna also use a device called a "pen", which deposits indelible ink on the paper in the same manner as a pencil, except that you can't rub it out without making a big mess.

I think I'll bring in a ream of paper to pay for it.

More often than not, paper needs an external light source to be effective.

Paper copy over ALL. When the shit hits the fan and the damn thing is so broken you can't get into what you need, a harcopy will save your arse a thousandfold. Damn trees should be happy they've spared you the stress :P
