Yes - Microsoft Press reprinted it ‘trade paperback’ style in 1987.
The ‘New Media Reader’ published a great Computer Lib review and sample:
“Computer Lib / Dream Machines is the most important book in the history of new media.
Nelson’s volume is often called the first personal computer book… This, however, was only one of the many visions, prescient and influential,
offered in the volume.”http://www.newmediareader.com/book_samples/nmr-21-nelson.pdf

You can still buy a republished 2013 reprint of the original edition directly from Ted for $111 (original text, TN graphics, flip book tabloids layout). It’s great.
But ‘quantities are limited’ and I don’t know if he still has copies. So step right up!
