I noticed the other day (I've been checking daily) that the Intel docs were available on hard copy. Does anyone know if they ship to the UK?

I sent a request, but I haven't received a reply so I'm just waiting and hoping they'll arive, but I couldn't see anything to say they did or didn't.

It at least used to be typical, that you get the automatic email confirmation at most a day before you get a FedEx guy at your door. In fact, some people reported at some point that the FedEx guy came first, and Intel's email only later.

So if I was you, I'd just wait for a few days.

Both AMD and Intel have shipped to the Netherlands for me, so I think they'll do the UK as well... AMD needed some alternative destination filling in (so that it would end up with a person instead of just machines, and then be sent on) but Intel just ships there.

It took a while for me to get mine. I had forgotten about it actually so it was sort of a surprise. I actually think I enjoy the PDFs more simply because I dont have to worry about holding the book open.

;D Heh, sounds like pretty standard fodder then. Thanks, I just wanted to check.

Sure PDFs have the handy ability of being able to be searched in a couple seconds (handy for looking up opcodes) but I'm not sitting reading the entire however-many-thousand-page manual off a laptop screen.

hey,

i have been looking on the intel site, but couldnt find the page that gave me the option to get a white-paper, do any of u have the link?

These aren't technically 'White Papers', by my understanding, however I'm guessing these are what you're looking for.

IA-32 Intel Architure Software Developer's Manuals

Page to request hard copy (if available) or CD (if available) copy of any Intel document

I would be interested in the link for the amd docs, because as far as I know wont they ship to other countries except the usa and canada!

They give an email address to send manual orders to, but it is *very* hard to find. I eventually did a search and found it in the embedded systems section.

To be precise, it was shipped to Saskatchewan, USA, with my real address in the comments section. It took 3 months to ship, but it got there... with pen workings on the cover...

I got the Intel IA32 manuals shiped to me in Ireland a few years ago in super fast time, and all completely free!
