All,

Quality Software are the folks that published "Understanding the Apple
][" (and //e), as well as Worth and Leichner's "Beneath Apple
ProDOS".  I had contact with them about 7-8 years ago when I purchased
the ProDOS-8 v1.3 supplement to BAP.  At that time, they kept office
hours only one day per week:

Quality Software
21000 Devonshire (Suite 114)
Chatsworth, CA  91311

818-709-1721


At one point, Brady Books published their cataloge, FWIW.  Good luck
chasing this down!
