(Osborne McGraw Hill I think, 1984). It's an ace book, full of anecdotes about the main players of the micro market. Among other things, it contains all of those "Wozniak" stories that were going around a while ago. I got it from a library and wanted to own it, but although it's still in print I've had it on order for 8 months with no sign of it yet. Could anyone in the World (I s'pose USA is favourite) get me one, or tell me a bookshop where they're in stock? A mint condition used copy would do too, if you've got a copy you don't want (unlikely I know). Please e-mail, we can chat about payment methods later. Thanks for you indulgence - we return you to your regularly scheduled program. Adam -- A. D. Curtin Tel : +44 438 753430 British Aerospace (Dynamics) Ltd.
