Direct from the author, DJ Elliott, this is version 3.2 of Understanding the IBM Compatible Computer.  It has been in print and updated constantly since 1989.  New features include FAQ's and Windows95.

This book, in the form of a text file (in both TEXT and Word For Windows V2.0+ formats), offers both an interesting overview of building your own computer, the common components and related software and hardware issues, as well as the evolution of the PC through the last 10 years or so.

Makes for good reading, and don't forget to pass along a copy to a friend! :)
