The Macintosh Bible, First Edition by Arthur Naiman and contributors, Goldstein & Blair, Berkeley, California, 1986. The scan is 435 pages.
This is not an Apple publication. It is a third-party book, and it is a secondary source: where it disagrees with Apple's own service documentation, the Apple document wins.
What it covers
[edit | edit source]A very large collection of tips, product evaluations and practical advice, updated edition by edition and sold with free printed updates. Each edition is substantially rewritten rather than reprinted, so the editions are not interchangeable: the first edition is the one held here.
What it does not contain
[edit | edit source]- No parts lists, no component values and no schematics. It is a users' reference, not a
service document, and its hardware advice is at the level of "install a fan".
- Product evaluations are contemporary with the edition and are of historical interest only.
Pages that cite this document
[edit | edit source]- Macintosh 128K, Macintosh Plus, Macintosh SE — contemporary practical advice
- The Dead Mac Scrolls — published in the same series by the same imprint, and the repair companion to it
