Oh, wouldn't we _ALL_! (Well, a lot of us anyway...)

In my short search all I could find was "English language" descriptions of
the various functions, but nothing with timing diagrams or even timing
relationships between/among the various signals.

Please let us know if you find a good hardware reference manual.

(Lessee, the IBM manual has schematics - should I type it into a simulator
and see what happens???) (Hey - that's 'sposed to be a JOKE!)
