Why, it’s’ the answer to the American Dream! It’s the Greatest Thing Since 
Sliced Bread! It’s the Solution To All Your Retain-Release Nightmares! It’s….

Automatic Reference Counting!

And, um, seriously… you gotta’ check it out! There’s lots of documentation on 
developer.apple.com <http://developer.apple.com/> about it, but I’d start here:

Er… you mean System 7, running on a 8Mhz 68000, with 1MB of RAM? Yes, I do… 
somewhere around here in a closet I’ve got an original 128K Mac, with a Levco 
MonsterMac 2MB upgrade in it (IIRC, they desoldered the 68000, stuck it on a 
daughter card, and stuck that card back in-between the CPU and logic board, and 
fitted a hacked ROM to make it work - it was kinda’ cute, as they modified the 
boot sequence to show two fangs on the smiling mac icon), and an SE with 8MB in 
it (IIRC, I haven’t fired the SE up in a while… probably ought to, though…). 
I’ve also had my hands on just about every other Mac ever made… even if I 
didn’t actually own it myself (friends, work, etc).

Anyway… if you post a link to your updated code, I’ll check it out.

For anybody else interested (and google’s spiders) — direct links:
