Books for DEC-heads

Lucky me. I went home with a box of old DEC paperbacks today. A nice
assortment of PDP-8, PDP-11 and VAX titles. I don't do DEC (I remember
cherishing the honor of powering-down our development VAXen for the last
time), but the books are small, so I plan to get them all signed by Gordon
Bell at VCF next weekend and stash them away for 100 years or so.

Except for one. This one is not only rare, but seems to be full of useful
info: VAX-11/750 Level II Student Workbork (For Internal Use Only). This
looks like it would be great for somebody who wants a pretty deep
understanding of the VAX architecture, including microcode, the WCS,
unibus, the works. I'm not good at estimating page count, but it's
double-sided 8.5x11x2". If some DEC-head could use this, let me know.
Offer me a trade of, say, your spare Intel MCS-4 manual and it's yours :-)
