'The 8088 Project Book' is what kicked off my 8088-based single board
computer project. It leaves a LOT of the software-related part of
things as 'an excercize for the reader,' though.
Any book that progresses a step-at-a-time to build an 8088 based
computer on those white solderless breadboards HAS to be cool.

I'm building my personal library for vintage
computing. I need to
probe the collective wisdom of the list in what books must a
"wannabe" collector (like me) should have on his/her bookshelf.
Although I collect primarily DEC stuff, I don't want my knowledge to
be just restricted to what DEC had to offer.
I have:
VAX Architecture Reference Manual (1987)
The visible Computer: 8088 (1986)
The 8088 Project Book (1989)
iAPX88 Book (1983)
