Apple Technical Information Source CDs (1990 to 1992)

The Technical Information Source CD-ROM provides fast, fingertip access to a wide range of support tools and information-all in one place. Contents include technical databases, frequently used system utilities and diagnostics, and support-oriented HyperCard stacks.

Apple’s Developer CD Series 1989 to 2009

Starting in 1989, following the release of Apple’s first CD-ROM drive in 1988 (the AppleCD SC), Apple began distributing software updates and technical information about it’s products on CD. In addition to downloading these for my own use, I am including links to online sources to make it easier for others to find these CDs and I’ve included links to the relevant Apple Direct/Directions articles that describe the contents of each CD. I have found these CDs incredibly useful for learning about and setting up these old systems.
