V1.02 Softalk Magazine contents page, October 1980

Softalk magazine was published in four full volumes between September 1980 and August 1984. In total, over 9,300 information-rich pages chronicle a pivotal period in the history of Apple microcomputing. More generally – due to its pioneering breadth and depth of content – Softalk is an unparalleled source of information that captures the emerging revolutionary impact of affordable microcomputing on our societies, cultures, arts, and economies.

Currently this on-line archive contains only a brief profile of each issue available to the project. See the About page for more information about the goals of, and roadmap for, the Softalk Apple Project.
