   Has anyone paid the $150 for the SDK 3.1 manuals?  
   Was is worth it?  Necessary? 	

   Also, does anyone know if it is necessary to buy the MME SDK to
   program multimedia apps in Windows 3.1, or does the SDK and C 7.0
   combo have the necessary files?  

   If the MME SDK is necessary, is it compatible with Windows 3.1, or
   there an upgrade for it also?	

   Thanks,	
   Steve

I haven't seen the manuals yet but I beta tested without them.  There is a
lot of online help so they shouldn't be necessary (although I will probably
order them anyway since I like docs :^) ).

SDK 3.1 contains all you need to program multi-media at a low level (i.e.
C code).

I don't know the differences between what you get with SDK 3.1 and the new
MME SDK since I've never used the latter.  Presumably various high level
tools.

Man, you'll be a happy puppy when you get the 3.1 SDK. I ordered mine today,
and it'll come with over 5,000 pages of docs (something like 13 books  
altogether)!!! Guess it's time to buy a new shelf... :-)

BTW, if you beta-tested the SDK, don't buy anything yet. You should have
received, or will receive soon, a GREAT offer from MicroSoft in the mail.
