You may have heard about the new MacTech CD — we released it at WWDC
(press release is below).
The short and simple message about this CD is — EVERY article of every
major Macintosh developer publication available and the original Inside
Macintosh is included on this CD. That’s more than FOUR LINEAR FEET of
printed content.
MacTech’s 1-12 CD includes:
* Entire archives of MacTech Magazine
* Entire archives of develop — Apple’s Technical Journal
* Entire archives of FrameWorks — from the Software Frameworks Association
* Volumes I-VI of Inside Macintosh(r)
and all of it is accessible in one of the most beloved reference tools —
THINK Reference.
On the CD, you get:
* Almost 1600 articles from all 139 issues of MacTech Magazine
(1984-1996) and part of 1997 — in THINK Reference!
* All 29 Issues (1990-1997) of Apple’s develop(tm) — in THINK Reference!
* 21 issues of FrameWorks from the Software Frameworks Association
(formerly MacApp Developers Association) — the most complete set of
FrameWorks archives known. (Note: These articles are in text format
on the preliminary version — they move to THINK Reference format in
the final version.)
* Improved hypertext, improved indices, and a new THINK Reference Viewer
— for lightning quick access! The new viewer has improved searching
capabilities.
* 100+ MB of source code — use them in your applications, with no
royalties! Includes all the source code from MacTech issues as well as
Apple’s develop and FrameWorks.

Inside Macintosh, Vols. I-VI
