Anyway, if you find a copy of the Sieworwick, Bell,
and Newell's book
'Computer Structures, Reading and Examples', there is a companion volume
that has many of the ISPS descriptions of the machines discussed in the
main text. As Will's note about HP points out, as historians we should
try to find them all and get them in bitsavers or the like.
I know I
have some of the ISPs for the micro's and the PDP-11 on hardcopy in a
filing cabinet (I just ran into them a few weeks ago when looking for
something else), but I should have them on tape. It would be a shame
to lose those.
Just send them to bitsavers, to save them ...
