After 3-4 years of no Macintosh programming to speak of, I now have decided to retire the 512KE and get a IIsi. Of course, things have changed since then and I am now an utter novice again. I have an old phonebook edition of Inside Mac (remember, there used to be just one volume?) -- what do I have to read now to once again become current, or at least less obsolescent, in my knowledge? -- Paul DuBois dubois@primate.wisc.edu "Was all of this because I wore a big man's hat?"

Start by getting the current Inside Mac, and burn the phonebook edition -- or at least, lock it up as a valuable keepsake B^). It was a preliminary version, and contained a good deal of wrong information which has become more wrong as the years have gone by. For tutorial material to accompany IM, I like Chernicoff's "Macintosh Revealed" volumes, and then there's the tech notes. Gotta have the tech notes! David Casseres Exclaimer: Hey!
