American TV in California sells de re Atari, last I heard.  I think the price
was around $12 or 12.50 plus shipping.  They also have Inside Atari Basic for
about $6, although this is a book for beginners.  Your Atari Computer
and Atari XL/XE Users' Guide are the best overall books, especially the
former.  They show up on a lot of bookstores' shelves.  There is also a
book called the Atari BASIC Source Book, which tells all the secrets about
the BASIC interpreter, including listing the source code.  (I guess for
version A.)

Serious hackers should also get Inside Atari DOS, which is excellent, though
it  contains at least one error I have noticed.  The O/S manual and listings
are available from Atari.

The computer sells for $69.95 now but you can spend $200 on documentation!
I'm going into the publishing business!
