Just wanted to let some of you know that when I dropped by my local Amiga dealer (160 miles), they had the 2.0 RKM's, at least the Hardware and AutoDocs/Includes. Does anyone know if the 2.0 Library/Devices has been released yet? Funny that the Technical DOC's have been released, but no sign of 2.0 Enhancer packages! John – K7KB (via Whap!)

Odd, anyway. It sure isn't funny. :^( –Ben

Eric, the dealer is "Beyond Computing" in Spokane, Wa. I've heard that other dealers are getting the 2.0 RKM's, so they should be showing up at a dealer near you 8^) John – K7KB (via Whap!)

The Barnes and Noble near my office (mid-town Manhattan) had that same volume — just the AutoDocs (the volume I've been waiting for least!).

I might be wrong, but I have a feeling that the 2.0 Libraries/Devices manual is going to be split into different manuals. Either that, or its going to be one HUGE hunk of paper! "SAVE A TREE – DON'T BUY THE RKM" 8^) John – K7KB (via Whap!)

Yes, according to the Hardware manual — it lists four other volumes in the series on the back : the Style Guide, Autodocs & Includes, Libraries, AND Devices. (the last two as separate volumes) – db —–> via Whap!

Hey, I picked up a "Amiga ROM Kernal Reference Manual – Includes and Autodocs – Release 2" yesterday at book store. So *it* is avail now. And on the back it does say that other volumes in the series will be the Devices (one manual), Libraries (another manual), and Hardware (another manual). –jp–seattle–

John, The 2.0 Includes and Autodocs have been available for quite a while (6 weeks, at least). I don't know how long the 2.0 Hardware manual has been available but my dealer has it in stock. -sja

I thought they would probably split up the Libraries/Devices manual, too much to put in one book. But we also have the pain of purchasing another 2 seperate manuals, and at the prices they charge the full set could empty your wallet of around $150. John – K7KB (via Whap!)
