Yes, you have to join APDA to purchase MPW or any other Apple Developer Tool. If you are developing for the Macintosh, you really should join APDA. > >2) How much do I have to pay for a membership? APDA membership is $20.00 a year. It includes a 'subscription' to the APDALog. >3) How much is MPW? MPW Shell $200.00 (This includes the Assembler) MPW C $150.00 MPW Pascal $150.00 MacApp $100.00 > >4) What is the current status of MPW vs C++ vs MacApp? I don't totally understand this question.
