I pulled it out (being a packrat pays off sometimes) and wallowed through memories until I found "ZZ's Moof! Sound". But of course the wav content is a resource fork in the file. So I just downloaded the wav file from the museum and I'm happy. Meanwhile there's lots of HC stuff on the CD - I had forgotten that we distributed technical docs as HC stacks back in the day. ...and for those who don't have the 1989 CD (HFS/ProDOS Compatible) from Dogcow Productions in their archives... The Phil & Dave Memorial Fund So there you have it. A quick overview of the prerelease version of Phil & Dave's Excellent CD. It's rough around the edges (about as rough as a CD-ROM disk could be) but that's okay because it gives you the flavor ("Phil, Dave's putting that darn silver thingamajig in his mouth again!") of what we hope to accomplish in future releases. Besides, there is only so much we can do in a short time without sleep and not much caffeine. We're sure you understand: you say you're shipping when? But who are Phil and Dave? Why did we name your CD-ROM disc after them? And what is the Phil & Dave Memorial Fund? Well, to be perfectly honest, Phil and Dave don't exist, or they almost didn't after their bosses saw the "built-in-a-garage" attitude behind this project - the same attitude that got this product from concept to reality in little more than a month. Seriously, though, Phil (Williams) and Dave (Szetela) are two key managers within the Developer Services organization of the Apple Developer Group. Phil manages the Developer Technical Support group, which includes both Apple II and Macintosh DTS (and you can imagine what kind of job that must be) while David leads the entire Developer Services organization, which includes DTS, Developer Programs, Developer University, Developer Press, and Developer Events. This CD-ROM disc is named after them because they care about developers enough to have given us a lot of freedom in creatint it for you, and they're going to be putting even more resources behind it in the future to make sure it's something that can be used with pride. (Actually, we couldn't come up with a name, so we decided to put their pictures on the cover to let you see what we have to look at every day. Fortunately - for you - our Creative Services department came up with the nice cover you see from our design, so you don't have to look at them every day like we do.) We are establishing the Phil & Dave Memorial Fund as a relief effort to support these two guys in case we've been lost in the weeds with this whole comcept and upper management tells Phil and Dave to go graze off of a cliff like many a dogcow before them. Unfortunately, we cannot take cash, checks, or money orders, so you'll have to send your donations via AppleLink to DTS Feedback. So what are you waiting for? Hook up an Apple CD SC drive and let us know what you think, good or bad. Oh, and one more thing - if you like the concept of Phil & Dave's Excellent CD (as opposed to something sterile and very "suit-like") please let us know, or Phil and Dave may be out of jobs and management may make us clean up our act in the next release.
