A whiff of retro dust is in the air

Monday, 09 Dec 2024

I recently came across an ASM print edition from the year !!! 2023!!! on the Internet by chance!

ASM – The gaming magazine of my childhood! I had devoured, hoarded and stored ASM and other magazines in my children’s room for years. Strange, because I must have bought and read 4-5 computer magazines every month back then. As a schoolboy, I probably lost more time “in” these magazines than I spent with or in front of the computer itself. What my parents had was worth seeing: a 386 with 25 MHz and MSDOS5 and Windows 95 as well as an Apple Macintosh LC and a Macintosh CI, each with a 20” screen. You could do something with that. But back then, print was simply the information medium “par excellence” – and the computer stood in the dark and extremely unattractive dressing room…

Back to the topic. This was a special edition and it was still in stock! I ordered it straight away and had it in my hands a few days later. It brings back nostalgic memories. I was just as excited as I was as a child when I bought a new issue from the newsagent. If you are also interested: You can order the ASM Issue and much more at https://www.amigashop.org!
