:Has anyone seen, heard, or have SR books in digital form (ya, in binary
for
:you headware chatters :)?

They have not published books in digital form. FASA does WRITE them
on computers, however.

:Before ya bite my head off about copyright laws and all, I'm not looking
for
:pirated books but would love to have all of the SR books in a pdf or html
:format for quick searching. It would be nice if FASA would do this for us
:and I would pay good money for it but I doubt that would be coming
anytime
:soon. I have a scanner and omnipage pro 8.0 and am thinking about
:undertaking the project myself, anyone have any tip or tricks? I'm
thinking
:of buying extra copies of the books and taking them to a printshop to
have
:the spice cut off for easy scanning.

I suppose as a private use that might be legitmate, but I hardly see
how any of us could legally assist you in you efforts.

I haven't heard any plans from FASA to offer anything like that for
SR, despite their supposedly positive experience with the ED main rulebook
CD.
