These downloads contain the Macintosh Technical Notes published by
Apple's Developer Technical Services group through October 1990.
Technical Notes were published to document bugs or other changes to
the OS that were not in Inside Macintosh. There was a long wait
between Inside Macintosh Volumes 5 and 6 and many of these Tech Notes
were published in this period.
(These Tech Notes are included on several of the Developer CDs, but
this may be a more convenient place for people looking for them
quickly.
