Hey, if these are what I think they are they're pretty cool, though I
thought there was just 3 volumes. Are they about 8.5x11, and .5-1 inch
thick? ISTR, the volume 3 as being a 'interesting' look at the computers
available in the early to mid-80's. I'm pretty sure I've got the first 3,
but they seem to have lost the bookcase space fight at some point and been
moved to storage as they're no longer where I thought they were :^)
