I don't know if these are what you are looking for, but I have the following: AmigaDOS Technical Reference Manual AmigaDOS Developer's Manual AmigaDOS User's Manual – all copyright 1985; Commodore-Amiga Bantam Computer Books. Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual: Libraries & Devices Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual: Includes & Autodocs -both copyright 1989 Commodore-Amiga Addison Wesley (18177 & 18187) I also have Schematics & Expansion Specifications June 9, 1986 from Commodore Computers for the Amiga 1000. And the A1000 (1985) user manual. Let me know if any of these are what you are looking for. I have more books but I'll have to dig a little deeper… Tim

Dear Tim, Thank you so much for your kind reply. Yes I would be very intersted in all the manuals you have listed, and what ever else you have. They aren't exactly what I was looking for but I can certainly use them. I am looking for service, and diagnostics manuals, Schematics, disks etc. I know that the service manuals are going to be real easy to find. As I said before probably as easy as finding a wallet that fell from an airplane but of course being a Pittsburgher just may change those odds due to the horrid events that occured last night at 7:pm. our time. All of our main roads in and out were closed for the duration of the night. At any rate kind sir, please get back to me at your leisure with your asking price for the manuals, and if you may have located any more of them. Thank you very much, and please take care. Faithfully Yours, Richard Tonti

I have an (photocopied) A500 service manual around somewhere – is this of interest to you? Mat.

Dear Michael, Thank you. Yes The A500 service manual is of great interest. Any usable tech info would be greatly appreciated sir. Just let me know how much you would like for it if you decide that you'd like to sell it. Thanks again. Richard Tonti

I've got to find the thing first. Where is it?!? Get back to you when I've dug it up. Mat.

Dear Mat, Look under your coffee pot matey! Isn't that where they always put it? Regards, Richard Tonti

Mat, it is also of interest to me! I tried ordering one, but it never appeared in stock. Could you please send me information on how much you need to photocopy it and the cost? I pay everything. The Four Seasons of Southern California: Fire, Flood, Earthquake, and Riot.

Well, the problem at the moment is that I can't find the bloody thing (excuse my French). I'll get back to you when I have. It's about 30 or so pages, so at 5 pence a page, that works out at, ooh, L1.50 for the duplication. On top of that of course there's cash transfer from US$ to UKL. It must be around here _somewhere_… Mat.

Re: A500 service manual Brian, As I said in my message to Richard Tonti, I cannot find the dratted manual. Sorry 'bout this, maybe an alien took it, Mat. "My conscience is clean – I never use it." – ???

Richard, I grew up in Pittsburgh, although I moved from there in 1960. I lived in Squirrel Hill. My wife and I visited this summer, my first vist in over 30 years! Where in the city do you live?

How about $40 plus shipping for the lot.

#163366From: Richard TontiSep 10, 1994 5:01 PM

Dear Master Tim, Fourty bones is just Jim dandy so you got it me Lord. If you could e-mail me the appropriate address I shall send out the payment at once. Thanks Tim Richard Tonti
