I do not know whether that has improved.

Yes which is why i tried to buy the PDFs...
Our dept have just been told to teach a doctoral course in econometrics, so we are scrambling to remember what is left in our heads in terms of econometrics. I have just bought the hayashi econometrics (again as already bought hard copy) on Amazon, going through the first chapter so far it looks OK.
I have been in three homes at three different parts of the world for the past couple of years so I have to try to carry everything in electronic format. My hardcopy hayashi econometrics is sitting somewhere in my mum's home...
Google books is also atrocious in terms of PDFs... I have bought a book about qualitative research and for a few chapters all four sides of the book have about 2 inches lopped off...
