Edge article 'the Magazine Game' uploaded!

Post by Lloyd Mangram »

Hi folks,
just uploaded that excellent Edge (issue 102) article about the history of famous computer magazines (such as Zzap, Crash, CU, ACE & Super Play) It's a pdf-file (+/- 2 mb), and in a very readable & even printable quality. For those who missed out on that particular issue/article.
Here's the link:

I also made a pdf of the Zzap article in the Retro edition (better quality and also pdf-file, +/- 2 mb), but I forgot my linx, so watch this space for an update. The loose scans ares still available:

Just change the pagenumber in your browser, _1 to _8


Btw, for the ' perfectionists ',(like me, unfortunately) spot the (mistake(s) on the 'Zzaplike' frontpage of the article about the computermags:















So? Ever heard of 'WHIZZBALL'? (that's rather foolish, really)
And what about: 'spin dizzy'?

Hey! I said for perfectionist only!
Nevermind.. :D
Ta!

Maybe it was some over-zealous spell-checking? :D

And no mention of 107. Dammit! :wink:
