Hi, Last year my father bought a Cbm1581 3.5" diskdrive for his Commodore 64. For his Cbm1541 5.25" diskdrive he has a good technical reference book, written in German, published by Data Becker. What he is looking for for quite some time now, is a book of the same kind for the Cbm1581 diskdrive. Does anyone know a title, publisher, isbn? The book should tell something more about the software internals of the diskdrive than is stated in the manual that accompanies the drive. Thanks for your help, Rob van Manen Rob van Manen. | email - manen@apolloway.prl.philips.nl or | manen%nvpna1.prl.philips.nl@uunet.uu.nl | SERI - manen:nlwaya01 or MANEN:NVPNASA Rob van Manen. | email - manen@apolloway.prl.philips.nl or | manen%nvpna1.prl.philips.nl@uunet.uu.nl | SERI - manen:nlwaya01 or MANEN:NVPNASA

I thought Abacus had a book out that included 1581 references?
Not sure if it's still in print, but it would be worth looking
for.

Software Support Int'l sells a detailed book on the 1581 internals. They used to sell it bundled with the 1581 Toolkit, but now it is available by itself for around $20. ......BJ BJ Hudson AT&T-BL MT NJ bjh@mtgzz.ATT.COM
