Yes.  SpInside Mac is great.  They have it cross-referenced with the
Tech Notes stack, and the chapters are all in order (Quickdraw is followed
by Color QuickDraw, etc.).  The size of the thing is a little too expensive
for my hard disk (~14 MB) so I guess it will have to stay on the CD.

Now, the next logical step is for Apple to purge all tech notes, add the
information to the real chapters, and start over with the tech note
number series.  The real examples and data has been in the tech notes
the last few years.  We need to put it in the main publication itself.

Just speaking my and my co-worker's minds.
