	I have recently been drug kicking and screeming into the MAC
world.  We want to use the MAC for cross development and a major
complaint of mine is the derth of cross development tools.  As of Friday I
have a MAC IIcx on my desk and now I need information.
 
	Are there any beginners books on the MAC that do not start
out by telling me what a computer is?  I have a lot of experience with
processor development using MSDOS and UNIX so I need a book that will be a
permanate reference but will help me get started.
 
	The current target processor is a 68000 which will be used in a 
space borne satellite communication system.  Are there any cross development
tools for the MAC?  We need C and assembly for the 68000 family and for
the MCS 51 family.  I still have the AT in my office so this last
requirement is not important.  The product should be robust and have a
professional feel.  Tools I currently use for the 68000 are from Micro Tech.  
For the 80152 I use the Franklin compiler.  The 68000 emulator is the 
Applied Micro Systems with either ESD or VXICE running on the AT.  
For the 152 we use the Meta Link.
 
	Any help will be appreciated.
