From the IBM Technical Directory, September *1986*:
Part No. 6280089 Form # S229-9607-00 "XT and Portable Technical
Reference" $49.95 plus $5.00 postage.

In the latest PC Magazine article on Disk Diagnostics they indicated
that IBM has combined the XT/XT286/AT/PS2 Technical Reference manuals.
However, neither they nor the people they spoke to at IBM knew anything
about this manual.  

I think the phone number is 1-800-IBM-PCSW.
