If you have read the manuals carefully, you really want some good tech notes.
Unfortunately, once you have paid ACIUS' steep prices for the tech notes, they
still leave you wanting.  Now, I agree with Jon: you have to get them.  But,
I really don't think that they should cost as much as they do.
Also, ACIUS tells me that _all_ the tech notes are available on Compuserve to
developers.  I haven't checked this out though.
