  1. Went spelunking in my storage last night. Didn't find what I was looking for, but came up with some gold from the mine anyways!

  2. @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.

  3. Wow! 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: youtu.be/i2eKaz1lHIE
