*** ACE WIT SAGE ***

   Over the past few months, I've been searching for a good technical reference
guide or two for the 8-bit Atari's (I own a 1200XL).  Two books that were
recommended are "Your Atari Computer", by Lon Poole, and "Technical User Notes"
(author unspecified).  I've scoured the bookstores and computer magazine
ads, but haven't found anybody that sells the first, or can get the second
(Computer Palace, in Eugene OR advertises the latter, but in fact doesn't
have it and can't get it).  If anybody knows where I can get either of these
books, I'd appreciate a pointer (e-mail, please).  Also, is "De Re Atari"
a good book to own (I currently depend heavily on Compute!'s
"Mapping the Atari" for all my info)?
   Also, while I'm here, I own a Indus disk drive, and want to order both the
new DOS (with "Synchromesh") and the DOS Reference manual.  All around both
the documentation and software, they say things like "Write or call us...
we'd like to hear from you!"; the only problem is that they don't give a
telephone number or address.  If somebody has that handy and could e-mail it
to me, I'd be eternally grateful.
