A large percentage are specialized for one particular computer or other, but many other titles are more generic.
Agreed. Too bad the most interesting books were those about the too-weird Timex Sinclair or ZX Spectrum. :/
I'm resentful that any book about Visual Basic, even about the outdated first releases, has to be "rented". Why not just let go, before the language began changing about Visual Studio 2005. I guess not. Some of those books probably have never been touched in 20 years, if it's just GUI programming that doesn't amount to a whole lot.
