Not all of us programmers can afford to become certified developers, or whatever they're calling it these days. I was wondering if system 7.0 docs will become available to the general public (thru APDA, say) on May 13 or soon after. I'd also like to know about the likelihood of a paperback IM VI. Not all of us can afford CD-ROM either. -Sho -- sho@physics.purdue.edu

Not all of us can afford CD-ROM either. Yes, it will be available just like any other volume of Inside Mac. APDA will probably be the first place it shows up, in a printed version. I think the current cost of becoming a developer is $350, which gives you just about everything except direct support from MacDTS. The full blown package is $600. Jim

Not all of us can afford CD-ROM either. Well, I picked up a paperback copy of Inside Macintosh Volume VI yesterday at a local bookstore for $39.95, which isn't too bad for a book that's almost two and a half inches thick....

Well, I got my copy of IM VI yesterday. I love it! I already started writing some code. Now if only I could compile it. Does anyone know how soon the newest version of THINK C will become available? -- Darren Garnier darth@athena.mit.edu | Some rise, some fall, garnier@alcvax.pfc.mit.edu | some try to get to Terrapin.

Don't quote me on this 'cause I'm in no way affiliated with Symantec, but I've heard through the grapevine that THINK C 5.0 should be available around the end of July. Anybody in the know from Symantec care to correct me please? -- Douglas J Renze internet: drenze@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu delphi: drenze

Hmmm .. another questions springs to mind. I hear that there's going to be an Inside Mac version II which is a cleaned up version of all the Inside Mac volumes. Any idea whether or not this is true and if it is true when will this new set be available?

Any idea whether or not this is true and if > it is true when will this new set be available? Someday. I attended a focus group that a market reseearch firm did for Apple to see what a random collection of 12 programmers thought of IM. I assume there where other groups too. Most of what I could figure out they where planning was a nice improvement over the current manuals. I have no idea when it might come out though -- michaels -- Michael Peirce -- outpost!peirce@claris.com -- Peirce Software -- Suite 301, 719 Hibiscus Place -- Macintosh Programming -- San Jose, California 95117 -- & Consulting -- (408) 244-6554, AppleLink: PEIRCE
