was going through some books to add to the reference library here at the museum and ran
across a most excellent book
Computer Structures: Readings and Examples
by Gordon Bell..... has the inside facts on many early system and even the 9100A HP
calc.
also to my surprise I found it online at the below listed url.
http://www.research.microsoft.com/~gbell/Computer_Structures__Readings_and_…
If you have plesnty of disc space you may want to archive it in case this link ever goes
away....
Happy reading!

It won't. Gordon Bell is a huge believer in permanent web archiving. He
puts everything online now.

As much as it would please (and shock) me to see microsoft.com go away, I
don't think that's going to happen any time soon.
Say or think what you want about Microsoft, but they are (for better or
worse) here to stay.

While Microsoft is almost certianly not going to go away any time soon,
their web site does change quite frequently. They REMOVE significant amounts
of content on a regular basis. If you see something on microsoft.com that
you want/need for future reference, MAKE A COPY [not a link] of the page and
related (e.g. graphic) files.

Gordon Bell runs the website from which his work is available. So as long
as he's around, it will stay. I'm not sure what provisions he may have
made to ensure it stays there after he's gone.

If he has NOT made some arrangements, then loss of the content from the
Microsoft website might alert you to his passing before you see an
obituary.

"So as long

never assume that any content is permanent
