When I was at IBM, doing 3rd level OS/2 support, I'd occasionally print
out a "Redbook".  Even with double sided printing, some of them took a
*LOT* of paper.  I'd normally print them on a night queue to the printer
that used 3 hole paper.  I still have one of them here, "TCP/IP
Implementation in an OS/2 Warp Environment".  ;-)
