I've found that one of the best sources for old
computer books and
magazines is often overlooked... the LIBRARY. Most public libraries have
a nice collection of books on old personal computers from the 1st wave of
PC popularity (early 80s).

However, if you're looking to own the books or
magazines, this doesn't
help. But if you're just looking for info or wanting to get some kicks
by reading old stuff, your local public or university library is a great
place to start.
Of course, many libraries do hold "book sales" in order to dispose of
"obsolete" materials . . .I've snagged several old computer books from
public library book sales.
