- With regard to updates, the quick answer is "try it". If you are copying from
- an offscreen bitmap, it is probably fast enough, assuming you aren't trying
- for animation. If it is a lot of complicated lines and figures or computed
- pictures, you may want to do the more intelligent thing.

- No, the 15 (or 18?) new Inside Mac books are not all out yet. Not by a long
- shot. "Processes", "Files", and "Memory" have been out for a few months. I
- just saw "Toolbox Essentials" in the bookstore yesterday. Since these things
- tend to come out in threes, I suspect there must be another couple volumes
- besides this also just out.

- Good luck,
