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). --- huver ...!uunet!amgraf!huver -or- huver%amgraf@uunet.uu.net
