I had ordered these a while ago and have them on my bookshelf... every now and then I even pull out out to consult the information they contain. What are these? They're a series of 6 books published by Intel that you can have shipped to you free of charge (US and Canada anyways... I'm not sure about their worldwide shipping policy). I thought of this now because I was telling a friend to call and get a set of them, so I wanted to share this with anyone else who might be interested in them.

The series is entitled: 'IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual'

Volume 1: Basic Architecture (SKU: #253665)
Volume 2A: The Instruction Set Reference (A - M) (SKU: #253666)
Volume 2B: The Instruction Set Reference (N - Z) (SKU: #253667)
Volume 3A: System Programming Guide (SKU: #253668)
Volume 3B: System Programming Guide (SKU: #253669)
Volume 4: Architecture Optimization Reference Manual (SKU: #248966)

To Request these books simply call:
United States: 1-800-548-4725
International: 1-303-675-2148

*Something tells me that the 800 number works in Canada as well, at least that's what I remember calling.
