I have several friends who have recently purchased Macs of varying
configurations.  It seems that I am continuously getting mail say-
ing "What do I need to get started?"

What I would like to do is install a "Beginner's Toolbox" on the 
public access Macs at UKentucky's Computer Center.  This idea, of
course, leads to the question "What should be included in this
Toolbox??"  Just off the top of my head, I came up with the following:

     MacKermit
     StuffIt
     BinHex
     PackIt III <for some of the older archives out there>
     FatMouse <I find it useful>
     MacMan DA <for beginning programmers>
     SysErr DA <table of system error messages>
     Introduction to Macintosh Technical Notes
     Index to Macintosh Technical Notes
     MacSnoop <or equivalent>
     ICONMaster <or equivalent>

I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have for items to include <or
exclude> from this Toolbox.  *Please* use email; I'll post a summary of
replies to the net.  Please give concrete reasons for the inclusion or
exclusion of certain items; I don't want to get into "X is much better
than Y" wars without specific points to discuss.

Thanks for your help.
