Glen,

I suspect that you'll have to order the manuals directly from Microware. You
might also contact Ed Gresick at DELMAR.  He has told me he might be interested
in selling the OSK manual set to those that don't have them.

I realize that your MM/1 purchase was supposed to include manuals.  From what I
and been told, the original agreement between Microware and IMS was that they
would get only a few (I believe it was about 50) sets of OSK manuals for the
number of licenses IMS purchased (which was more than the 50).  It was up to
IMS to write their own manuals for their machine and include in them all they
felt was necessary from the Microware manual set.  Not to say it was OK form
IMS to copy the information verbatim, but to create a new set of manuals. 
Those were the manuals that IMS was to provide along with the machine.

Needless to say, this set of manuals has not been done.  I have contacted Paul
Ward about this several months ago and said I would do the manuals.  He has
still not gotten back to me on it or sent me the information he promised to
enable me to start writing them.

Last I heard, the manual set from Microware was going for about $120, or maybe
as low as $80.  Let me know what the price is if you decide to contact them or
Ed Gresick.

Mark
