Yes, this book is quite well. But the descriptions of the Chipsets are not the
real thing. There are missing IMPORTANT details. If you do programming under
DOS you don't have to know them all, but if you do programming under UNIX you
have to know every register. The best thing is to have the Et4000's databook
along with the examples from Ferraro's book.
