Message-ID: <497@apple.UUCP> Date: Fri, 27-Feb-87 16:50:20 EST Article-I.D.: apple.497 Posted: Fri Feb 27 16:50:20 1987 Date-Received: Sun, 1-Mar-87 15:41:15 EST References: <1190@hope.UUCP> Reply-To: jordan@apple.UUCP (Jordan Mattson) Organization: Apple Computer Inc., Cupertino, USA Lines: 50 Keywords: MDS, Development Systems In response to 1190@hope.UUCP A request for information on MDS 2.0 appeared, with questions about its availability. Also included was a question about the quality of the phone book edition of Inside Macintosh. If you have MDS 1.0, if you send your MDS 1.0 disk one and $25.00 to the following address (It must be post marked by Feburary 28th - though if it is a few days late it should be acceptable), you will receive the MDS 2.0 upgrade kit: Apple Computer, Inc. MDS 2.0 Upgrade 467 Saratoga Avenue, Suite 621 San Jose, CA 95129 Include a form giving your name, compnay, mailing address, and phone number. If you are a California resident, include 7% sales tax. Checks should be made payable to Apple Computer, Inc. In mid-March, Apple Computer will be discontinuing support of MDS, and turning the product over to its developer, Consulair Corp., who will be marketing it as the Consulair 68000 Development System. They plan to sell it for 79.95 I believe. You can order it from direct from Consulair Corp at the following address: Consulair Corp. 140 Campo Drive Portola Valley, CA 94025 In addition, it should be available from APDA (Apple Programmer's and Developer's Association). Finally, you should get Inside Macintosh Volumes 1-4 to replace the phonebook version of Inside Macintosh. The phonebook version was a very early version and is not a accurate as the published version. As a final comment, if you can afford $100.00, you should order the Macintosh Programmer's Workshop from APDA. This is a very powerful environment with a number of great development tools, including a great assembler. -- Jordan Mattson UUCP: ucbvax!mtxinu!apple!jordan Apple Computer, Inc.
