I don't have these references at hand Does anyone around here have a copy of Inside Atari DOS, or know where to get one? I've been having a heck of a time trying to find it, since last seeing it and (in retrospect, stupidly) NOT buying it, back around 1983 or 4. Rumor has it that it's out of print, but does anyone know for sure? If all else fails, I'd love to have the hotline (800 number or otherwise) to COMPUTE! themselves, so I could get the scoop "straight from the horse's mouth." E-mail or post here. Thanks.
