3dfx Archive - Scanning old 3dfx based articles in magazines

3Dfx_tweaker Junior Member Offline Posts: 85 The Netherlands Gender:	Scanning old 3dfx based articles in magazines 15.11.04 at 19:30:50 I think it would be nice to scan a lot of old magazines with articles about 3dfx. Thandor has already scanned some nice articles from german and dutch magazines. I hope that people that still have these magazines can scan those articles about 3dfx. This would be a nice addition for you archive Falconfly. Hint Hint Hint

Hm, with scanned Magazines I'd have to be careful in Germany.

Problem is, that not a few Lawyers have specialized on ripping off Webmasters for violating very minor Items (people literally hate them for doing that).

Having scanned copies of Magazines in the 3dfx Archive would only work, if the company holding the Magazine either explicitly allowed it, or simply does not exist anymore. Otherwise, I might quickly see myself paying several thousand Euro's to some lawyer Tongue

@VDX,

Your correct, boot did change its name to MAXIMUM PC (in early 2000 I think ), except for maybe about 5 issues or so, I own every boot mag 8)

It was a really great hardware magazine with lots of 3dfx related articles and reviews and it also had tons of 3dfx's advertisements Grin

3dfx was the best back then and it was easy to be a fan Wink
