Before anyone gets too much more upset by this discussion, perhaps I should
mention that John just told me that if I really wanted the book, he thought
it had once been available on the web. That reminded me of something I
checked out a year or two ago. The curious might investigate
https://toolbox.sgi.com/toolbox/hardware/hwHandbook/
but don't expect vast amounts of serious technical info.
BTW, if anyone has the "GIO Bus Specification" referred to in Chapter 4,
I'd like a copy :-)
