[anti-line eater]
Hello, everyone. I am a brand-new reader of comp.sys.amiga, since
I just ordered my A1000. In reading through old messages, I have found
many references to assorted manuals, but no clear over-all picture has
emerged. Since I am a hacker, I want to get all the available manuals,
especially hardware manuals. Could someone mail/post a compact summary
of what is available, where to get it (C-A? Addison-Wesley?), and the
cost?
Thanks, all.
