Glen,

	I have all three manuals from DEC on the Rainbow.  Actually,
I also have three more that I bought that were the wrong ones.

	I ordered the CP/M Technical Documentation Set last year.
DEC sent me the set for the 100A, and it said nothing about the B
(I have a 100+).  I went to DECUS last year and saw all the manuals,
so now I have the right ones.

	The manuals are as follows:

		CP/M Technical Documentation Manual
		MS-DOS Technical Documentation Manual
		Rainbow 100B/100+ Technical Documentation Manual.

	The CP/M and MS-DOS manuals contain data on the operating systems,
and the other one is for the hardware itself.  The hardware manual includes
complete specs on the boards, connectors, memory map, etc.  The operating
system manuals give only memory maps for the operating system itself and
the interrupts they use, plus BIOS listings, etc.

	Unfortunately, I do not have the manuals here at my office.
If you want more detail, send me a note and I will list detailed table
of contents for the manuals.
