I am not really surprised. People first spend allot
for the hardware, then
they go after original manuals, original software, and finally posters or
magazines talking about the machine (the real hardcore go after schematics
and training videos).
Actually, I tend to start with the machine, then I usually go
after technical
documentation and finish off with operation manuals and the like.
The only exception I've made thus far was for my Tek oscilloscope - the
service manual includes a copy of the operator's manual.
I'd still like copies of the Popular Electronics magazines that included the
Scopewriter, the COSMAC ELF and the add-ons and software for the ELF. Then
there's the ten or so Maplin "Electronics: The Maplin Magazine" magazines I
need to complete my - ahem - "collection". I've already got every single
Everyday Practical Electronics magazine from November 1997 onwards.
Later.
