Intel hardcopies

Post by JAAman »

hard-copies of the Intel Manuals are availible again -- but its grown to 5 books now!!

they have split vol 3 into 2 parts now (presumably due to additional content relating to virtualization)

but the order form seems to be gone -- now you have to e-mail the request



just thought i would let everyone know that the new manuals are availible

ps: the link in my signature will take you straight to the download page, which contains a link to the ordering information (at the bottom of the page)

I received my manuals yesterday...it took them ~2.5 weeks to come.

Manual 3A-chapter 3 (or the whole book) should be required reading for posting on forums!

anyone could read it but who could read it with an open mind until they understand it

I'd guess so. They shipped it to Philly from Colorado...

Why don't you e-mail the address and find out? (It actually is a real person).

I just emailed the lady, and she's processing my order now. I find it really hard to believe that they would ship these completely free of charge. Maybe they come with printed advertising or something...

The fact that Intel is sending them is the advertising: you probably like Intel right about now, right? The only propaganda in the books is the bit about the Intel processor history; no harm in that, is there?

Exactly! Why would Intel charge you if you want to develop the next-best-thing using their OS? It's in their best interest to make this information public.

AMD does this, as well, of course.

Intel shipped them to germany within less than two weeks for free :) I also mailed to AMD and received a reply telling me that they are processing my request...

Intel was fast in deliverying them. I got a e-mail about 5 days after I ordered my copies to tell me that they had posted them, and I received the package the following day. \:D/
