Micro Cornucopia sells three varieties of Kaypro schematics, for $20 each,
with a theory-of-operation keyed to schematic.
	-  Kaypro II & 4 (pre-84)
	-  Kaypro 10 (without modem)
	-  Kaypro 2, 4, 10 (84 series)
Schematics are on a single 24" by 36" sheet.  They include serial and
parallel port details and programming examples, and other nitty-gritty
details that is hard to find elsewhere (e.g., how the Kaypro II bios
switches between video and main ram banks). I have both the Micro-C
schematic for Kaypro II, and a bootleg copy of the dealer's manual and
schematic.  The Micro-C version is a lot better than what Kaypro provides
dealers.  

Address:	Micro Cornucopia
		P.O. Box 223
		Bend, Oregon  97709

Phone:		(503) 382-5060  (9am to 5pm, PST)

They take Visa and Mastercard, and prices include postage.
I've ordered from them by phone, and got good fast service.  They also have
a technical help hot-line, the number of which I don't want to broadcast to
the net, but you'll find out about it if you decide to buy a schematic from 
them.  I've called the technical hotline and gotten good help on tracking
down a hardware problem. In summary, this organization is a good resource to
people with Kaypros (also Big Board homebrew systems, and Xerox 820 series.)

I have no connection with Micro C, other than as a satisfied subscriber and
customer.
