Including some on the operating systems(software). It does have some drawings and charts, and some lists but no pictures.
The usual disclaimer or notice applies. That you should make sure, you have the latest edition or copyright year. As with all computers and electronics, it changes so fast. It should be in the lower double digits edition by now.
