coze · 28 April 2009, 12:51

Amiga C for Advanced Programmers
Amiga C for Beginners
Amiga Graphics inside and out

at a.org ... :*(

Brakus · 28 April 2009, 12:54

Maybe you beat me to it!

whiteb · 28 April 2009, 13:03

LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, Jaw drops at the response..., Better than Sitting for 10 day listing on Egay.

Oh my poor Coze.

Brakus · 28 April 2009, 13:34

I'm sorry Coze!

coze · 28 April 2009, 13:58

Slayer · 28 April 2009, 22:37

I'm too late but happy to report I already own these ones

cosmicfrog · 28 April 2009, 23:57

so why would you want to buy them Slayer?? is it to no better not start trolling slaps hand

Slayer · 29 April 2009, 03:44

huh? I entered the thread to see what was for sale because I am trying to collect the entire Abacus Set of Books realised I had all of them (that was good) and also realised they had been purchased... I am simply conveying this information.

Your comment obviously stems from something else that is bugging you no doubt... I have no idea... perhaps you need to rethink your objection...

whiteb · 29 April 2009, 05:12

Okay, all that is left of the set now, is one copy of 'Amiga 3D programming in Basic', Due to not realizing I actually (Somehow) had 2 copies.

redblade · 29 April 2009, 13:20

damn looks like it's back to the state library for me to get the info I need from the Amiga Disk Drives book.

cosmicfrog · 29 April 2009, 13:25

I have no objections at all

but I dont think "I`m to late" & "I already have them" conveys the same info as your second post

just an opinion

good luck with the sale whiteb

Slayer · 29 April 2009, 13:52

Another EAB user who doesn't like admitting when they are wrong... LOL... nevermind, seems to me I'm too late (is I am too late to bid if I wanted too) and But I'm happy to report (means Its a good thing I didn't miss out on anything) And you did object to what I said...

you can be as judgemental as the next person if you like but doesn't mean you are justified in every instance... also, just an opinion can probably explain 80% of the posts on this forum, it is not an acceptable disclaimer in this case ;-)

gizmomelb · 29 April 2009, 14:43

going slightly off topic - does anyone know the titles of Abacus books number 6 and 7 please and does anyone have a copy for sale? thanks.

There were 13 in the series weren't there plus the 'Amiga Intern' ?

EDIT: amazing what google finds, so answering my own question:

Amiga System Programmers Guide (Abacus). Amiga series book #6.
Advanced System Programmers Guide for Amiga (Abacus). Amiga series book #7. ( Brakus - want to part with the copy you just bought? )

looks like 16 books in the Amiga Blue series:
Amiga Desktop Video Guide (Abacus). Amiga series book #14.
Amiga Printers Inside and Out (Abacus). Amiga series book #15.
Making Music on the Amiga (Abacus). Amiga series book #16.

I have this book - got the disk some where as well but I think it had a checksum error on it...

prowler · 30 April 2009, 00:41

Hi Peter,

Does it have a number on the spine? (All the ones I've listed above do, with the exception of the AmigaDOS Quick Reference, but they're all blue, like the ones in the opening post.)
