jd_1138 Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) Any good place I can get PC books from the late 80s early 90s? Like DOS manuals, programming guides, etc. Ebay. Also, there's a website called Paperback Swap. They have a lot of old computer books, including even Atari manuals and programming books. And they have newer stuff too. On Paperback Swap, you post books you no longer want, and then when someone requests one of your books, you mail it at your expense (usually $2 media rate), and then you thus obtain a credit allowing you to choose a book from any other member of Paperback Swap (the sender pays shipping to you). I used that site to swap a lot of my wife's romance/mystery books for a lot of great non-fiction books (computing, programming, engineering, science).

Hatta Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 Hm, I was hoping that something like BombJack or Atari Archives existed for early PC books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanallan Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 www.fetchbook.info and look for keywords. Excellent site to find obscure books sometimes. I got a Fortran book that way, the size of a phone book for $4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
