PC Plus in the days of Paul Stephens (RIP) and Dave Pearman was hands down the best computing managazine around. I believe I have every issue from -1994-2000 with the exception of Feb 97 (long story) but these ones predate me sadly.
- bagnus 1y agoPaul Stephens contributions were incredible. His web design articles in PC Plus and those Lotus Screencam tutorials on the SuperCD were what got me started. They were my first proper lessons in building web pages, and they ended up shaping my whole career in software. I still remember following Huw Collingbourne’s Delphi and C++ Builder tutorials too. I actually learned to write a word processor in C++ from those. PC Plus was such a good magazine. I bought it religiously from around 1996-2002. Miss those days.
- jen20 1y agoSame, largely. As were the tools they somehow managed to negotiate for inclusion on the SuperCD. Sadly paulspages.co.uk appears to be down. It would be great to recover the screen cam videos for YouTube though! I did see a memorial recently [1] - turned out he lived up the street from me for many years.
