Has anyone been able to successfully edit a MenuBar resource? I noticed
someone else has been having the same problem. Inserting any menu is currently
impossible. At least once, the menu bar's first menu was complete trashed after
inserting a menu. In fact, I've never been able to run a program that contains
a menu bar that I've inserted. The program would crash during the command to
create the menu bar.
Could System 5.0.2 rectify the problem?

Another source of history is a tabloid sized 'magazine'(116 pages) that was given out at COMDEX (Fall '88) by Computer Systems News, (516)562-5882 The title "REFLECTIONS: An Oral History of the Computer Industry" is great.

If you're at a Trade show pick up an extra copy of: "REFLECTIONS: An Oral History of the Computer Industry" at the COMPUTER SYSTEMS NEWS booth. for a yourself and a friend, and READ it, SAVE it, and PASS it on to others. This is hard core HISTORY folks, that WE are making. Don't throw it away.
