I was checking ebay for soakers when I came across this. Would these patents give useful internal diagrams? Does anyone have this software?

Thing is, you can access most patents freely off of the Patent Office site ... I have a link somewhere... the only benefit this CD provides is that they've dug a lot of the info up already.

Otherwise, they are selling what is, AFAIK, freely available to those who look.

:cool:

So it's like they're giving you express access to what you want to see for a premium? I don't know. It's a one-time-use thing only, IMHO. You've seen it once, you've seen all you need to know.

And uhh, what's AFAIK stand for, iSc?

AFAIK = As Far As I Know

At any rate, it's not bad for those interested, but I don't have much use for the patents and it's not like we could go around re-posting the design images online without permission so...

I wouldn't get them, rather save the page and then use their list of patents to get your own collection started.

I actually have access to much higher quality patents and even pending patents due to the fact that my father works at the patent office. Maybe I should ask him about checking the pending patents? We very well may find some 2005 gun or WW gun in there.
