Ben RabicoffNew office wall artwork. MacAddict issue number one (1996). Have I been holding onto this in an archival sleeve since the day it came in the mail when I was 12? You bet. 🤓
iiiDIYWent spelunking in my storage last night. Didn't find what I was looking for, but came up with some gold from the mine anyways!
Ölbaum@drewpickard @brentsimmons Great magazine. We bought the first issue when I was in holiday in the US with my parents, and we subscribed once we were back home, despite the high shipping costs for Europe.
It was really hard getting rid of them. I even contacted a former editor on LinkedIn to ask her if she had access to a scanned archive. I eventually found one, and I kept a box of just my favourite issues.
Caesar WirthWow! No idea how I stumbled upon this nostalgia bomb. My dad would get MacAddict magazines and CDs and they always had such cool game demos on them.
Never thought I would see this again, but it’s ingrained so deep in my memory for some reason: https://youtu.be/i2eKaz1lHIE

I continue to read #MacLife on #AppleNewsPlus and have so many fond memories when they were #MacAddict and the CD’s that would come packed with Mac #shareware!

ms. lizthat feeling when you could only get software on physical media. a selection of old ephemera i found a couple moves ago:
• MacAddict magazine bonus CD-ROM of freeware/shareware/trials
• Netscape Navigator v1.1 for Mac 3.5-inch floppy
• AOL 2.0 for windows 3.5-inch floppy

ClaudioMWell, the Motorola StarMax 4000 turns on, but it looks like the HDD is shot (made some concerning clicking noises, not the usual thrashing). Haven't connected it to the display yet so I won't know for sure until I connect it.
I did find this #MacAddict CD in the CD-ROM drive, though. To think it's been in there for God knows how many years! 🤯
Ænðr E. Feldstraw@openfirmware Ooh, I remember #MacAddict. For years I safeguarded every copy I bought. Then I ran out of money and switched to Linux.

I’m a #plastic #beagle that you plug into your #computer. I’m not #neutered, so I require a USB-A port, rather than the more compact USB-C model.
I’m pretty much never in-character in this account: it’s more of a 98% pure #id kind of account.
