Oh damn! I totally overlooked that...wow..hard to believe I could
overlook a publication by Knuth. I have a copy of Vol I on my
shelf too...lol ever have one of those days/weeks? ;-D  It was
going to be a 7 volume set if I remember right, but Knuth
only did 3 volumes. But that doesn't take away from
his contribution at all!

oh and I guess just in case people are in to Comp Arch. a 
good collection of whitepapers/articles can be found 
in "Readings in Computer Architecture" by Hill, Jouppi, Sohi.

I guess I should also mention that if youu into C++ you
should have a book by Bjorn Stoustrup !
