I posted this about a month ago, but still haven't gotten any response:

To anyone with info on the DEC Rainbow Technical Manuals:

    I have a DEC Rainbow 100b, and I'm interested in getting the technical
information I need to effectively write assembly language code under
MSDOS. I've heard of three sets of technical manuals offered by DEC
for the Rainbow, each set for $75. I know one set is for CP/M, and one is
for MSDOS, but what is the last set about? 

    Further, does the MSDOS set have what I need - memory map,
list of interrupts, and whatever else?  Since it's going to be hard enough
for me to come up with the $75, I would appreciate any info anyone can
provide to help me decide if/when to purchase the manual(s).

    Thanks in advance.
