A contemporaneous "Upgrading and Repairing PCs" book of the era. I have
Scott Mueller's 10th Edition for the old stuff.

My professional career was in programming and mainframe data centers systems
management since the late '60's. Since I hand-built and kept upgrading my
IMSAI in '76, I developed "skills": soldering, circuit reading, a smattering of
electronics, and not being able to afford to keep up with the breakneck pace, I
scrounged and salvaged old computers and made them work. Unfortunately it's
not transferable, and as Euclid told Ptolemy, "There is no royal road to
geometry." Learn by doing.

Hi All;
Paul, I got the Eleventh Edition in PDF format, online..
I had to switch to Ubuntu 5.10, as my Linux Mint would get partially thru the
partition and then get stuck, where as the Ubuntu made it all the way thru on
the Hard Disk and is bootable now..
So I can continue making the Linux From Scratch..
THANK YOU Marty
