Hier die Heft-Diskette der Zeitschrift "Amiga Spiele Disc", Ausgabe 10 mit einer Vollversion von "Maniac Mansion" für den Commodore Amiga. Im Zeitschriftenhandel erschienen am 25. August 1993. Die entpackten, bootfähigen Spieldisketten hab ich euch ebenfalls als ADF-Images beigelegt.

Ruhiger Morgen im Büro heute. Treib' mich mal wieder n bisschen auf Archive.org rum und hab mir dieses alte "Amiga Spiele" Heft von Markt & Technik runtergeladen. Die alte Diskette für den A500 funktioniert noch super und per AmigaDOS Skript konnte ich mir zwei Spieldisketten von Maniac Mansion erzeugen. Wieder ein schönes Teil für die Sammlung! 😉

Unlike some earlier releases, the "Best of Entertainment Pack" compilation from 1994 still works perfectly on Windows 9x. Microsoft "TETRIS for Windows" is still one of the best versions of Tetris ever made! 😉 😎

A must-have for Windows 3.x!

Happy birthday, floppy disks!

I never used 8" floppies, but I remember the excitement of my first 5 1/4", which meant I no longer had to save programs for my Trash-80 on cassette tapes. What a time to be alive!

I just unpacked this beautiful version of SpaceQuest II for the Commodore Amiga. The 880K diskette is perfectly readable, but… there‘s a savegame. Oh, well.. 😞  😉

So, floppy disks are officially 54 years old, based on the patent application's grant and publication dates. However, work on this portable storage medium began in 1967 as part of IBM’s Project Minnow. This project proposed “a flexible Mylar disk coated with magnetic material that could be inserted through a slot into a disk drive mechanism and spun on a spindle” as a form of portable/removable media, instead of tape or punched cards.
