Heh, heh; you're right, it's consistently misspelled in the body of the K1008 manual,
but nowhere else as far as I can see.

Typical; the tech writers couldn't spell, but the marketing folks who did the front 
covers and the catalogue were probably all MBAs (not that that guarantees
spelling ability either)
;-)

But FWIW, I think the official names were 'Visible', spelling errors in that one manual
notwithstanding. I'll scan some pages for your files and amusement.

Maybe MTU corrected it after the fact. Anyway, it's from here and I think
I've seen it spelled that way in a few other places:

Notice that the whole document spells it that way. I guess MTU didn't
lose any sleep on spell checking. :)
