Summary: 3.5" drives, assembly


Hello, just another set of questions from another ignorant new user:-)

First of all, I purchased my Mac + without any external storage, so I would
have time to decide if I wanted a second floppy, or hard disk.  I have
decided that a 2nd 3.5 drive will suit, but don't want to pay for the apple
name if there is another brand which will work just as well.  Someone else
asked this question a short time ago, but there were only a couple of postings
I saw on the net in answer.

I would like *any* information which people will send about 3rd party 800k
disk drives, both good and bad.  If I get any response (please e-mail), I
will post a summary on the net.

Next:  Who out there is using Assembly on the Mac?  Where did you get a hold
of an assembler (as far as I can tell it didn't come with System Tools or
Utilities)?  What is the best reference book (I don't need anything really
low level - I have used assembly on other computers)?

Last:  Hypercard - I ordered my mac directly through the University, and 
from what I saw of the shipping inventory, Hypercard was supposed to be
included (It was not) - would it have come in the macintosh box or would
it be boxed seperately?  The reason I am asking is to see if I might have
not been given something I was supposed to have gotten when I picked it up.

Salutations, Brian Oppy
