You will all soon find out, just as Nick Thorn did, that people are all take and no give. He got hold of an English "version" of the MC16 manual, had it re-mastered and printed, and offered the hard copy for $40. I believe it cost him about $400 to do, and couldn't even break even. Now people are e-mailing the PDF around, and Nick gets no credit whatsoever.

hmmmmmm sorry Andy I am one of those who provided the pdf for the 16. I had no idea of the background as I got it from some guy in Mexico and was just interested in helping out others who were searching for one. I would be more than willing to give $40 for a hard copy of the manual. Flick me his details or post them here. I'll take down the pdf from the site I have it hosted on.
