Dear Boon,
Are you thinking of "Thought and Discourses on HP 3000 Software"
by Eugene Volokh of VESOFT, INC.? I have a fouth edition copy given to
me by Vladimir (his dad) in 1989.
VESOFT is located at
1135 S. Beverly Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90035 USA
Telephone: (213) 282-0420
FAX: (213) 785-9566
Perhaps you can contact VESOFT and purchase a copy.
It has a cover price of $12.
Let me know if this is any help.
HP: simply the best computers on earth.
