A course in Microsoft BASIC on the Macintosh.

This is not a repair source

[edit | edit source]

This is a programming book. It contains no schematics, no parts lists, no component values, no voltages, no connector pinouts and no service procedures, and nothing in it should be cited for a hardware figure. Apple's software documentation and its compiler manuals describe the machine as the programmer sees it, which is not the machine the technician sees.

For hardware data use: 

 level: specifications, symptom charts, take-apart and module part numbers
  • Apple's Developer Notes — the one class of Apple developer document that does carry
 rail currents, expansion-slot power budgets and connector pinouts. Several are held here, for
 example Macintosh IIci Developer Note, Macintosh IIsi Developer Note and
 Macintosh LC 475 and Quadra 605 Developer Note.
