Also alas, the Website of Robert Derman, http://www.dermancomputer.com, seems to have vanished, along with his useful free E-Book: "You Can Build Your Own Computer".

I was able to find it thru an archive: http://web.archive.org/web/20070215141342/http://www.dermancomputer.com/ They also archived the book you're speaking of. HTH, Randy --
