	Can any one recomend a good manual on the 286 and 386 PCs?
I want a manual that will get into the technical detais such as the drive
requirements for the interrupt lines.  I also want information about the 
PC in general such as the workings of the VGA display card.

	One manual I am getting is the one from phoenix about the BIOS.
I do not want a manual that assumes I know nothing about the PC.  Most of
the ones I see start by telling me what a computer is.  I have several years
experience programming from the 6800 to the 68030.  What I want to do is
be able to understand the PC completly when I open my somputer store in the
miswest next spring.
