VP Search will find it.
See your VAR for more information on these and other Alpha Micro office information products.
ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION
Now that your computer is up and running, you are ready to start exploring the world of Alpha Micro.
Your guide to the new territory is the Alpha Micro software documentation. This section gives you an
idea of which documentation to consult for directions depending on the path you want to take.
Your computer is a member of the AMOS family of Alpha Micro computers, and the software
documentation that applies to other AMOS-based computers applies to yours, too.
You may purchase any book mentioned in this chapter separately; in addition, a multi-volume software
documentation library is available containing all the AMOS software books listed below. You can order
any of these books by calling your VAR. Most Alpha Micro documents are also available, free of charge,
in Adobe Acrobat format at our Web site, www.amos-online.com, and are distributed on CD to our
VARs.
Here's an idea of what to look at next:
"I Want to Start at the Beginning"
If you have never used a computer before, we recommend you read the AMOS User's Guide. This book
is a practical introduction to the Alpha Micro computer, containing instructions for many of the
procedures you'll use every day. It expands on many of the topics discussed in Chapter 3.
