A while back I posted a query on the new Amiga RKM, enjoyed very fast and
helpful replies and got the books within one week. Since I got no request
for summary, I didn't post follow-up. But someone just posted identical
query, so here they are (w/ list prices):
Amiga Hardware Reference Manual. ISBN 0-201-18157-6. 1989. $24.95
Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual: Includes & Autodocs. ISBN 0-201-18177-0.
1989. $32.95.
Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual: Libraries & Devices. ISBN 0-201-18187-8.
1990. $34.95.
(note: the new RKM L&D is really Exec, Intuition and L&D; three-in-one.)
Apparently many B. Daltons (Software Etc.) and Waldenbooks carry them. There
are two each within 15 minutes of driving distance from me, none knew RKM
(Software Etc. does carry A500); so I had to find the "right" store. This
Amiga dealer:
HT Electronics
346 Maude Ave.
Sunnyvale, California 94086
(408) 737-0900
had all the books in stock when I called. Be informed that they said they
must collect California sales tax by Ca. law, regardless shipping destination.
Thanks to the following kind people who helped the Huver's Quest for RKM:
Pat Palmer (ppalmer@oddjob.uchicago.edu)
Mark L. Weindling (uunet!motcid!violet!weindlin)
-- to Pat and Mark: tried Software Plus but they don't ship UPS!
Patrick Horgan (phorgan@cup.portal.com)
Jeff Schweiger (uunet!cs.nps.navy.mil!schweige)
Thanks also go to Bruce Becker (I think) in Canada, who somehow managed to
read my query even though it went out with "usa" distribution (didn't think I
need to buy them from Canada).
