IBM Gekko User's Manual

[joshenders]

I've got a copy of an IBM Gekko RISC Microprocessor User's Manual that I picked up at a garage sale. It's nearly identical to the document here: http://datasheets.chipdb.org/IBM/PowerPC/Gekko/gekko_user_manual.pdf except that it's dated November 14th, 2000 instead of May 25th, 2000.

It's got implementation details that are probably pretty valuable to emulator developers and I'd be happy to ship it to any Dolphin developer on my dime; even if just for the novelty of owning it.

Here's an image of the cover: http://cl.ly/image/0L1j0F2l1G0v

Contact me via PM for arrangements.

I'm a dolphin Developer, despite my forum account only having 2 posts.

I'd love to have a hard copy of that document.

At the very least we probably should have a developer look for differences between the documents.

Unless a developer who is closer to you really wants it?Shipping to me in New Zealand might get a bit expensive.

If you find it expensive to send to phire, you can also send it to me if you really want to (assuming you're in the US, it'd probably be cheaper to ship to Canada). Though give phire priority on it unless the shipping cost are much more expensive.

Phire, if you want to reach out to me via PM, I'll get your details and ship it to NZ, no problem.

You could always ship it to Sonicadvance1, who's in the U.S. and then have him foot the expensive shipping cost to someone else.

The one you linked has a changelog near the start, does yours too? What changes does it list?

I don't mind. Shouldn't be too bad. I've got Phire's contact info, and I'll be sending it to him. Glad it'll be in the hands of somebody who can fully appreciate it.

It doesn't oddly. Here are the first two pages:

Not really sure why anyone would expect this to contain "new" information when the Broadway manual (which is more or less identical) came out five years later?
