I'm somewhat in agreement with you here.  To print 300-odd pages so 
that you can have the information at your fingertips (I work by 
having my documentation spread out on a table in front of me) is more 
than just slightly annoying.  If the same documentation were at least 
converted to HTML online, I could browse to the pages that I needed, 
instead of downloading everything and printing it out.  What's 
notable about the AVR documenation is that there's a table of 
contents of sorts, but no index.  So one is reduced to leafing 
through the document until one finds what one needs.

Ah, they don't write 'em like they used to.

Cheers,
Chuck
