This takes me back to 1996. It was a dark time for fans of the Mac, but there was some really cool stuff they were doing. HyperCard wasn’t quite dead yet either

On a complete tangent I lost a fair bit of that summer to the online multiplayer tank game Bolo.

- dinkblam 3y ago> dark time for fans of the Mac can't agree. yeah you were expecting them to go under each day, and OS-development slowed to a crawl (7.5.x releases seemingly dragged on forever). but things were moving in the right direction, technology was exiting and the future even more so. compare that to now, where things have been moving in the wrong direction for decades now and each day there is more lockdown, surveillance and user/consumer-hostile nonsense. the past's future didn't turn out freeing and exciting, but boring, depressing, restricting and homogeneous.
