The Def Guide to Zzap!64

Iain · Posted: Sun Apr 11, 2010 12:04 pm Post subject: Happy 25th Birthday Zzap!64

25 years to the day when ZZap first hit the shelves and changed the face of C64 magazines forever.

Apologies none of my new features for the site are ready in time but work is ongoing so they'll get here eventually and hopefully before we celebrate the 30th birthday! Wink

So raise your glasses and wish Zzap!64 and all who sailed on her, a Happy Birthday.

p.s. If my first born is born today, I think it goes without question, that they shall be named 'Zzap', it would obviously be a sign!!

I figured someone would probably know... I never actually knew what day in April the first issue had come out on...

Damn - time flies = picked up my copy at a computer store called Vudata in Ashton-Under-Lyne.

Happy days.

What's 25 years in the end, eh?
We're getting old too soon.

Zzap!64, what a splendid mag you were, rivalled but never surpassed!

Cheers fellows.

@Iain, hey, what's the score?
