Summary: What addresses are the pictures stored at?

Does anyone know about getting the developers ROM pictures on an SE/30.
The developers of the Macs are supposed to have digitized their faces. 

What are their addresses? So that when the programmers button is
pressed, one can type g HHHH HHHH and get a picture.

Thankx in advance.

Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1992 15:19:19 GMT

I have been meaning to buy a colour Mac for a while, but have been waiting for
the new models. I went today to my Campus computer store and was told that
Apple is dropping prices for ONE WEEK (until Friday), and then brings them
back up on Monday. Of course, Monday is when the IIvx and IIvi are expected...

Now the dilemna: should I jump to it and buy a Mac IIsi now at the lower price
(about A$600 less than last week) or wait for the new models, who may turn out
to be just a tad more expensive and much much better. Has anybody got any
idea of the expected price of the IIvx and of the IIvi and of how they compare
to the IIsi performance-wise? (And also, is Apple likely to bring prices up
significantly on the IIsi next week, or is it just a ploy to get rid of the
old models this week?"

Thanks for any information

Subject: Info-Mac "Old" changes
Organization: CSIRO, Division of Information Technology, Melbourne
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 92 03:15:13 GMT

For the past few years, CSIRO's Division of Information Technology in
Melbourne has maintained a large series of files in it's Info-Mac shadow
(on shark.mel.dit.csiro.au) consisting of obsolete versions of info-mac
software.  This archive has proven valuable in that I see on the order of
40 ftp accesses a day attributable solely to "Old", virtually all from
overseas.  Many new versions of Macintosh software do not operate on older
machines, so owners of such machines tend to come here looking for "their"
software.

Over the past few months, the Australian Academic and Research Network's
Archive Working Group has maintained this function on plaza.aarnet.edu.au
(archie.au), while CSIRO has maintained an older version of the "Old"
hierarchy.

For many reasons, these sites will no longer be maintaining the "Old"
directory trees.  The archiver at Washington University of St.Louis has
indicated interest in picking up this functionality, and we hope to see
the "Old" tree appear soon on wuarchive.wustl.edu.  In the mean time, the
disk space on shark and on plaza is about to be reclaimed for other archives.

Just for info, there are nearly no Macintosh users at either site, and none
of the few here use "Old".

What CD was it again? What tracks? If you haven't ever heard of a CD with

fact that the tracks may be available in other places...

I once saw a 12" of DM Never Let me down again, with the album version

But it's definitely a promo!!! And different from the standard releases...

The point being made by Steve and others is that charts reflect and equate with
sales, dollars, statistics, business.  Stating that RED SAID FRED jumped a
staggering 900,000 chart positions in 3 seconds is hardly a _musical_ commentary.
That's the essence of their statements.

That's all.

They were great on their 'Flood' tour. Just two of them plus a backing tape did
make for a limited show, but I hear that they have a HOT backing band and the
shows are quite excellent.

How did I know that? Well I am on the They Might Be Giants mailing list. To

I got one reply to this (sorry for not responding - I lost your message!).
It appears that Lovecraft are a Sydney band on the Timberyard label. They
have a CD either out now or out real soon now...

Now I just have to find a record shop that has heard of Timberyard
records... Might just have to visit Sydney next week.

Check this band out - if their CD is as good as their live performance I
reckon this band will have a big future.

um, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you yourself make the point that
'alternative' bands actually *sell* a lot more than the charts give them
credit for?  Now, I may be nieve in this area,  but to me, that should
be making them a bob or 2 more than the mainstream bands being 'supported' 
by the charts.  As such, I fail to see how these 'alternative' bands actually
suffer.  You make money by selling recordes and performing live,  not by being
high on a chart without any real sales.  The mere fact that these 'alternative'
bands *do* sell a lot more records merely demonstrates my point re the 
irrelevance of the charts.   Of course, MMM may not play it much, but
MMM doesn't play dance music either :)   Besides, anyone *serious*
about listening to non-mainstream music listens to RRR anyway ;-)

mainstream record companies are in the business to make money.  If your
music will make a profit for them,  they'll look after you.  Waht do you want?
They're not charities.  Besides, almost every 'alternative' label is just
owned by emi ...  :)

Why not do what I do whenever I want to buy *ANY* CD - visit JB hi-fi and buy
it bloody cheaply (this is a Melbourne store, don't know about anywhere else).

NO, I'm not associated with them in any way, I just know that they *ALWAYS*
have the cheapest CD prices. For instance, when everyone else had their Cure
sale on (all CDs except Wish for $20) JB was selling them for $17 - I could
tell you a dozen similar stories... They have H & C for $24 which isn't the
cheapest it will get, but it's a lot better than the $28 everyone else has
it for!

Sometimes I even bother to check other stores' CD prices before I go and buy it
at JB anyway...  8^)

Happy CD buying,
Chris.

PS JB had Pink Floyd's Delicate Sound (double album) for $25 a little while ago!
