In my recent auction buy I have (5) Compaq Service
Quick Reference Guides,
pub 1992, starts with Contura and LTE and goes up through Systempro 486/33,
total pages 240 or so. These look like working books for techs with basic
info like jumpers, memory, etc. I am keeping one for myself, the other 4
are first come first served, $2 each plus $1.50 postage in USA.
I found an interesting reference guide today published by
Ashton-Tate. It's the 'Reference Encyclopedia for the IBM Personal
Computer, Second Edition' by Gary and Karen Phillips. It was
published in 1983 and covers two volumes in the typical
binder/slipcase configuration that documentation tended to use at
that time. It covers commands, various programs of the period,
manufacturers and other terms and such. Pretty interesting.
