FAQs
What do I get for my hard-earned cash? A nicely-made magazine with a glossy colour cover on the outside and ten printed listings of web pages on the inside, accompanied by illustrations and info. I don’t understand, it’s a magazine of HTML source code? Yes, you type it in then you get to play the games and run the apps. Type it all in? Why?! Because it’s a lost form of software distribution. It was intriguing and rewarding back then, maybe it still is now. Don’t I need a web server or something? No, you edit a file on your machine then open it in a browser (don’t worry, there’s a beginners’ guide). Can I cheat and get a PDF instead? No.
