Inside Macintosh is the name of the developer documentation manuals published by Apple Computer , documenting the API s and machine architecture of the Apple MacintoshMacintosh computer. The first documentation for the original 1984 Macintosh was available only in the form of photocopied sheets that could be obtained from Apple. A telephone book version of Inside Macintosh was also available, which consisted of one 1000 page volume. It was sent as a promotional copy to developers. The 1000 page manual was sent out because the real version would take some time to print. In 1985, they were published by Addison Wesley in the form of a hardcover book that was available to the general public. The first version had three volumes, which covered the original Macintosh 128K Mac 128K , Macintosh XL , and the Macintosh 512K Mac 512K Fat Mac models. When the Macintosh Plus was released, a fourth volume was added, detailing the changes to the system software introduced with that model. A further delta manual, volume 5, was introduced with the Mac II line in 1987. This manual discusses color QuickDraw , as well as the MacintoshII Mac II and Macintosh SE Mac SE hardware and other new software components. By the time of System 7 Macintosh System 7 , released in 1991, the Inside Macintosh delta model was becoming seriously stretched. Nevertheless the details of System 7 were documented in the immense Volume VI. Shortly after this, Apple revamped the entire Inside Macintosh series, breaking it into volumes according to the functional area discussed, rather than specific machine models or capabilities. In this form, the series was far more coherent and a much better reference for programmers ... time. In the late 1990s, Apple ceased to publish Inside Macintosh as a printed book, instead making ...
