[C.E. Forman]

There are also both hardcover and paperback editions, for the true completists among us.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Hugh Falk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 10:43 PM Subject: RE: [SWCollect] Books on history of computer gaming? That book sounds great.  FYI, there are several on half.com…I just bought one for $6.  Thanks for the tip.   Hugh   -----Original Message----- From: C.E.
