 I can take it.  (I deserve it)]

Latest update, two things:
To Jim the book you may be interested in looking into was called:

	Assembly Language Programming for the Amiga
	By Douglas Leavitt and Daniel Wolf
	From Compute! Publications

But the name has been changed:
[A right reserved by the Publishers in our contract]
The new name [If I had my notes I could be 100% sure] is:

Computes! Amiga Machine Language Programming Guide

[Not: Computes! Machine Language Programming guide for the Amiga (I think) ]

It comes in a Light Blue cover [This I remember] like many of the other
Compute! Books with the spiral binding so that it lies flat on the table.

The bad news...The printer had some delays with the bindings, and the
book won't be leaving the printers this month like I told people earlier.
According to my sources the book should be leaving the printers on
February 9th [Marked in my calendar] to the distributers.  So it should be
on book shelves soon after.  Orders can be made now. [commercialism part]

Jim, the book has about 25 different programming examples in assembly
langauge including graphics, intuition etc. examples header files,
macros...  floppies will be available [with a full amiga compatible
assembler on the floppy and all the examples, header files...] from Compute!.
[I'm told there is a card or something similar in the back of the book].
