Yes, it looks like someone did an overly enthusiastic housecleaning. I don't think I have a copy of either of them. Hopefully someone else has them.

What about the rest of the missing files like twbook?

I can't remember the rest of them, but there was an index, I think. Maybe indexw.pdf? Anyone have one of those so we can figure out what's gone?

From the FAQ listed in your sig, FAQ #1:
tabook/tawbook/ltwbook - A/T/X/R/Z series
tbook/twbook - 2xx, 3xx, 5xx, 600, 7xx, 8xx series
tibook/tiwbook - i series
trbook/trwbook - older R series
3book - Lenovo 3000 notebooks
I don't know how comprehensive it became since Bill's last edit, but it's a start of sorts. I tried searching for some of the missing ones as suggested - no luck though.
