Closely related were the Sams Compufacts. These seem to have been 3rd
party techicnal/repair manuals for some computer products. I found the
one for the Commodore 1541 disk drive in a second-hand bookshop over here
(of course I bought it). It appears they existed fro many popular
micorcomputers and their peripherals.
It's written for less techncial people than the Commodore 1541 service
manual (which is just schematics and parts lists IIRC). The Sams manual
has step-by-step fault tracing charts, dismantling instructions, etc. But
it also comtains the full schematics :-)

I wondered if there were any computer manuals in
there.
I think there are, I found one for a Compaq portable and some
Gateway system, there are also some Zenith data systems items.
Sams did some good Ohio Scientific PhotoFacts.
