Abstract: We give a short proof of the following result: Let X be a complex surface of general type. If the canonical divisor of the minimal model of X has selfintersection =1, then X is not diffeomorphic to a rational surface. Our proof is the natural extension of the argument given in our paper in Inventiones Mathematicae (1989) for the case when X is minimal. This argument also gives information about the non--existence of certain smooth embeddings of 2--spheres in X, if X has geometric genus zero.
