Hi, I may be taking on some programming projects for one of the
prof's here.  I however know little about the MAC.  I have programmed
quite a few other machines and am no stranger to assembly programming.

Question 1) What language would you use?  any particular companies
version?  (note: I do not wish to start a flame war here, so E-mail
me if you have particularly religious views).

Question 2) What books are available for the programmer?  What kind
of books do I need?  Books that deazl with the BIOS?  books that deal
with Hypercard?  Do I have to know in advance which Mac I am targeting?

Question 3) You tell me!  What else should I know?

Any help is appreciated.
