After being told by all the local stores that it was still unavailable, I called: Montezuma Micro P.O. Box 2169 Camp Verde (Lizard Flats), AZ 86322 800-527-0347 Oddly enough, they had it in stock- they claim to have been carrying it for *THREE MONTHS*. Cost: $25.00 + $4.00 UPS. It is a very thick manual (same sort of binder as the MS-DOS and BASIC manuals). A full half of it is devoted to schematics and reprints of Intel and TI chip literature (and everything you ever wanted to know about the TEAC 54B disk drive :-). Now if someone would just tell my local Computer Center... -- Name: John Ruschmeyer US Mail: Monmouth College, W.
