I have a copy of the AMD 2900 databook, which I might try to scan in
somewhere (I can photocopy sections out for John if he needs them
right
away); someone also recently provided me with a
scanned version of the
Am2901 datasheet, which I can share.
You're on your own for a copy of Mick and Brick - it's copyrighted, so
I
can't scan it in - and I'm not giving up my
copy.... ;-) Powell's
(http://www.powells.com) has two used copies available for
$23.00/each.
