content: Nice. Thanks! Bell being a slightly more science oriented journal over the HP journal archives. Good to have their offering all online.

content: Oh man, what a treasure trove!Thanks for sharing with us!Heh, I was just skimming through the first edition from 1922, and found an article about a water-cooled high-power vacuum tube. It wasonlytwo feet long, andmerelyweighed two pounds! XDWe've come a long way, baby.Another interesting one was from 1969, regarding FFTs and digital computers for signal analysis.

content: I'm working on it... grabbing a copy of everything for my own use. Will give you a ftp link if you'll still be interested as it looks like it's going to be about 50-70 GB in total (grabbed ~ 3700 pdf files for 29.7 GB, 1400 pdf files left).

content: I don't really think torrents would be suitable for this, as it involves being responsible for seeding it and I don't really think people would seed 30 GB of pdf files. Also, some people may have torrents throttled while ftp may work just fine for large transfers.But why not, I guess... won't make any difference to me. Torrent is attached to this message and I'll probably seed it for about a month or so. If you have problems downloading through torrent let me know.FTP will still be available on request (give me a private message)Copy of the torrent is here:http://savedonthe.net/download/347/Bell.html

content: It's the Internet. There's no such thing that really noone would seed. And this is particularly interesting pack of PDFs to seed. I can seed this indefinitely with reasonable upload speed once I have my home server set up.
