Part of the awesome aura of the long ago & then great Hewlett Packard was 
that their manuals included highly detailed circuit diagrams of their 
equipment complete with detailed BOMs. Memory even suggests they may have 
had a circuit operation description. And for arcane magic the HP hournal 
described in great detail what they did and why and how. "Copy us if you 
can" seemed to be the challenge.

Alas, those days are gone and HP are just another bunch of consumer 
exploiters. Not terrible products, usually, but the glory days have gone.
