The Chooser, which is found in the Apple menu, is the Macintosh way of selecting resources such as printers or networked file servers. There are usually two or three windows to the Chooser. The top left-hand window lists the resource type, such as a printer type, or AppleShare, for networked file servers. The window below (if it is present) lists the possible AppleTalk Zones in which the resource may be located. The right-hand window lists the specific resources to choose from. After you choose the specific resource, you may be presented with a window asking you to give a user name and password, or you may be given some setup options (in the case of a printer).
