Since December, the Open Library has been scanning in a massive microfilm collection covering magazines from the late 70s thru early 90s.
Recently, they added a bunch of issues of "Software News" from the 1980s. Fun stuff. Find them here: https://archive.org/details/inlibrary?a ... publicdate
Here's an issue from 1985 that references the early Macintosh computers: https://archive.org/details/sim_softwar ... 85-11_5_11
It says: "So far, Macintosh is mostly popular with 'tech weenies' and 'gadgetophiles'"
And: "PCs are good for production work. Apple has to make people lust for a Mac."
And: "[Steve] Jobs is a creative guy and he thought everyone would share his vision."
I mention those lines just because they are amusing. There are actually two interesting articles about the early Macintosh computers in there, and a long list of business software available for them at that time.
