I bought this book hoping to understand more about that old XT.. I found it rather dry reading and it was probably beyond me.. and still is! Looking at it now reminds me of what it was like then... who else remembers "dumping" the memory to figure our "NOW what's the problem!!!". Yet Isurvived and the computer worked most of the time. Gee, that's funny, the darn computers still have problems, but now a memory dump isn't going to help!
