Well well, people throw out the darndest things..
I found a copy of a book by someone named Peter Norton. Looks to me like it
may have been his first book. Called 'inside the IBM PC'.
Isn't this the well-known pink-shirt book (so called because of the cover
picture).
Nope, it has a circuitboard as a background, and some horizontal fake
lightning on the cover.
