I bought my copy of MINIX at Computer Literacy Bookstore in person off
the shelf in San Jose. They only had software with manual or manual
only.  No software only. Well, now you're saying "Great, but I'm
not in SillyCon Valley". Good News they do mail order. According
to their bookmark:

all in-stock books.

them one time when I was out there for a week and was greatly impressed.
