I picked my copy up at the B. Daltons at 6th Avenue aand 8th Street in NY. The nice part, it only cost 20 dollars. The bad, it is a paperback, no hardcover. At least not in sight, or mentioned in the book. Somme details: 344 pages with an index, and references after each "paper". The book is a collection of papers that report on how several different implementations of SmallTalk-80 have been done by the following: Tektronix, Hewlett-Packard, Xerox, Digital Equipment Corporation, and the University Of California-Berkeley. All in all, a well done book, especially if you are even remotely thinking of implementing (and maybe using) SmallTalk-80. -- Bill Russell UUCP: ...!floyd!cmcl2!russell (212) 460-7292 InterNet: Russell@NYU.ARPA
