Trade book "The Amiga Guru Book" for Amiga stuff

Hi

I bought this book 14 years ago,it's an english version.
Yet i have an A1200 with a blizzard 1220.

My trade priorities are:

-Any Big box Amiga (A2000 with 68030 , A3000/25 Mhz
but my dream is an Amiga 4030;-)

-an accelerator more beefy for my 1200

I am open to any offer but Amiga stuff only.
I can add a fair amount of cash if the book is not enough.

Thanks.

The release of an unauthorised PDF version of this book on BitTorrent last year has seriously devalued this classic Amiga item to almost nothing

I agree, a proper book is far more useful

What? As a door wedge?

Space is more important, as is the ability to do searches.

As is the ability to not have to constantly switch between screens/windows when trying to use a PDF!

It's much easier to have a book in front of you when trying to diagnose an error, or try something.

I'm sorry Alex but I'd rather have a proper book over a digital book any day.

The price/swap that is wanted for this book is far too high IMO, but then I don't want to buy it!

Agree i always prefer real books or at least a printout if i want to read a bit more than just two or three pages.
