The 'local apic' is apart of the cpu.
Look at the cpu manuals for intel, notably the Intel IA-32 Architecture Manual 3.
Manual 3...

so did i, two copies infact, along with the usb specifications.
just a matter of finding the literature centre (which i dont think intel makes too easy and it seems to be gone now after looking
).
I've also got the free printed versions of the amd64 manuals, all five of them.
They've actually proved more useful than the a book called "The Indispensible PC Hardware book" that i bought for £20 off amazon marketplace. RRP is £40 brand new off amazon too :S and one third of the book documents the processor in a waffly manor that doesn't help anyone, the other two thirds is hardware that can be found on sites found in the development links and using google.
