    This was great news. First Peri Fractic buys Commodore, now this.
    What's next, parachute pants come back in style? MTV actually shows
    music videos? It's a good time to be retro.


    Oh Man.. if MTV was able to take back what is theirs from YT and Spotify as end-user experience. That would be rock solid!

    ... Xerox Alto was the thing. Anything after we use is just a mere copy.

    I've often said how much I miss the old "glossy magazines" from back in the day, so I was happy to see that there's a new magazine dedicated to what we call Retro Computing.
    It's called COMPUTE!s GAZETTE, and you can check it out at:
    https://computesgazette.com

    i love this magazine! <3
    You can download a PDF of a sample issue there, so just click on "Dive
    In" and scroll to the bottom of the next page to find the link.

    You can also buy the full issue, and/or subscribe to future issues
    there, too. It's not cheap, but I think it's a noble effort and one we should support if we can afford to. I bought the Premiere issue, and almost immediately got a full PDF, with the print issue about to be
    mailed out.

    i did already i have all 4 issues rn!
    By the way, it's got a nice article about FujiNet, which I've been
    accused of being a "cheerleader" for, and Thom Cherryhomes did a nice
    job of pointing out the details.

    fuji net is so cool!
