Love this format, canβt wait for the next! Besides the advertisements you should also stop a little longer on the articles/reviews and technical specifications. If the video is a little longer it is not heavy

Technology really was just moving at breakneck speeds back then, it was super cool to kind of "relive" that period through the magazines.

Great to see adverts from the big hitters back then like Borland and the like. It was a very different world! Funny story. Back in the 80s at our old local library, all the reference PCs they used were made by McDonnell corporation. Yeah, the one that made aircraft. Crazy.
