@mrdav: As the DL's had the same file - i.e. their MD5 hashes matched, and as this page was the more complete, I've removed that page keeping this one. The screenshot on this page needs replacing as it is watermarked with something not belonging to The Mac mag's cover or the MG.
We already have a page for the first download (The Mac cover floppies)
This magazine was my launch into Mac fandom, sad it's not around any more. Thanks to these I proper nerded up and knew all the specs of the machines at the time, all of which a long way away from the only Mac in my life at the time - My mother's Classic. The Top disk image works great, and it's the first time since 1993 I've ever been able to use some of the software on a physical Mac now I have a IIsi, LCIII, Powerbook 150, and PowerMac 8200 to play with.
