Hello everyone, id like to announce a new project im starting, The ClassicMag project. The goal of this project is to preserve classic computing and gaming magazines for extinction. Most of us classic collectors love to have magazines for the systems we collect as, in the past the provided an immense resource for reviews, news, insights and programs. The goal of this project will be to preserve old out of print magazine issues in a PDF format. These will be scanned complete issues with advertisements let in, as they are as interesting and have just as much nostalgia value. Our web site is currently up at http://www.classicmag.net there's not a lot there as of yet but with everyone's help I hope to fill it soon. I've got a tremendous amount of space to be able to host these files. What I'm looking for is help from the community, if you have old issues, anything to do with computers or video gaming, please consider scanning them in getting them to us. If you can't put them in pdf form, no problem we can work out a way for you to get them images to us and we will get them in pdf form. I have a small list of magazines on the site now for some different systems, if you know of any I don't have listed please email with the details. I want this to be as complete as possible. I'm going to try and stay with mags published before 1995. I don't want to run into a lot of copyright issues. As always if a mag is on our site and the publisher, if there still around, wishes it not be there we will take it down, but hope they consider this project worthwhile and let us keep them there. I believe this will be a great resource for everyone to be able to get a hold of some mags that are gone, but not forgotten. If you want to help with this project please email me at jim(a)classicmag.net . I look forward to hearing from people. Thanks Jim Oaks http://www.classicmag.net
