Several people have commented that it is difficult to
get copies of my book "Stack Computers: the new wave".
So, as a public service, here is some additional information:

1) Try your local bookstore, isbn 0-470-21467-8.  It should
   be in "Books in Print".  But, my bookstore in Pittsburgh
   wouldn't order it from me because it wasn't carried
   by their usual distributor.

2) I just found out about a John Wiley phone number that
   takes credit cards:  (201) 469-4400, ext 2499.
   Normal east coast business hours.

3) Forth Interest Group is NOT (the last time I heard)
   carrying the book, because they can't get enough
   of a discount from Wiley to support their required
   margins in addition to the customary 10% member
   discount.  This may change in the future, but I
   don't know when.
