There appears to be quite a bit of 1.10 specific info in the manual I
have...stuff in the apendices about double sided disks, etc. This is
the Second Edition, May 1982, for version 1.10.
I have a Columbia MS-DOS 1.25 manual also, which is quite primitive
looking compared to the IBM docs. The Columbia manual apparently was
written and printed by Microsoft, with a Columbia cover added to make it
look oem. This manual is also copyright 1982.
I am not quite intent enough to pay $$$ for a PC-DOS 1.00 manual...but
if one drops out of the sky, I'll put it on the shelf with the rest of
my almost complete PC-DOS collection.
