As quite a few people are aware, I tend to *really* like documentation
and books. Today was a good day for that as I acquired part of the
library from someone who had died a few years ago and was into
computers. The computer related books ranged from the 50's to the early
80's. A couple of books I had not seen but look to be very interesting
are:
The Computer from Pascal to von Neumann - Goldstine
The Analytical Engine - Bernstein
Sequential Machine: Selected Papers - Moore
There were quite a few books on software design, digital hardware
design, analog and hybrid computer design, compter logical design,
operating systems (including Tanenbaum), etc. This is enough to keep me
busy for a while checking them out :).
Unfortunately, an H-89 had already been recycled but there is still the
possibility that the manuals, etc. are still around. After I cull out
the books I want, I'll list them on the Computer Marketplace.
