KPower and Family Computing Magazine
Posted: Thu Apr 29, 2021 10:16 pm
Because there was a program in one of those magazines (turns out it was in the final issue of KPower) that was written for the Apple that did not have an Adam translation that has been on my "bucket list" for the Adam since I received my copy of the issue back in the day (I was a subscriber since those two were the only magazines I knew of, at that time, that had any Adam content), I have downloaded from Archive.org their entire collection that spans from just before Adam was included in the magazine until the end of Adam's run in the magazine because I could not remember which issue that "bucket list" program was in. I found it after going through all the issues I D/L'd but the thought occurred to me, would you be interested in my uploading the collection of these two magazines to the Adam Archive or since they are already on Archive.org don't bother?
Granted, both of these magazines didn't really have a lot of "must have" or "hard hitting" basic programs for the Adam (mostly fluff, admittedly), but they had a few pretty decent ones and almost every issue had at least one program for the Adam, I thought it might be worthwhile adding to the Adam Archive for the sake of posterity. I see that over on AA and on Joe Blenke's site(I may have misspelled his name) there are only those issues that have Adam computer reviews. The downside is that not all of the magazines are complete, the majority are, but there were a couple of issues that had missing pages. If I still have my collection somewhere, I may re-scan those issues, but it won't be anytime soon.
Just figured I offer what I do have,
