Is this book black? I'm just asking because two of my friends had really good
books about the 80286 while I had -- well, a reasonable book about 8086 and
that short one.
Anyway, I trusted your words and ordered "The 80386/387 Architecture" from
ABEbooks.com. It's only 12$, so no big deal. Oh yes, handling and shipping
adds ~8$, delivery will take 1-2 months. :-/
