RE: ur-quattro IST documents, service training books are still av ailable

John, 

I am sorry to hear this.  I was truly amazed though when I found out that
there might be 'factory' information still available for the Ur-qs so I
called once Steve told me about it.  Glad I did cause it seems I got one of
the very last 'copies'.

		Its interesting how cheap these are.  A few years ago one of
our more

ripped me off on
		grand scale with ugly copies of these.  Isn't free
enterprise great!!
