I'm looking for a Mostek 3870 Databook from 1981 (I've got an older one; for
that matter I've got the 1981 version too, but it ended up getting peed on
by rodents in the basement of my old house while we were moving... *sigh I
hope that wasn't some kind of mouse social comment; they didn't touch the
Zilog Z-80 manual or the Intel 8086 book right next to it.) I've got a
bunch of the 3874's & 3876's with EPROM sockets on the back; we've used
several in personal projects. That book was extremely useful, but now it's
not something I want to get close to; it's sealed in a plastic bag in case
we come up with a way to deodorize it but... *thud. Any help would be
appreciated! :-) (Wonder what happens if you bake a book in a kiln or
something at 250-300 degrees for a few hours? Would that take the smell
out? It's not sticky - just *stinky*.)
