Internet

The Internet Archive organization is engaged in preserving information that may not matter now, but in the future will become very valuable. Saved once the Internet Archive data is published with an enviable regularity. And this concerns not only the text or pictures of archived sites, but also software, including games. Earlier on the site of the organization there were laid out games for old game consoles, as well as a PC, and now a software package for the first Macintosh models was published.

The software collection includes software released from 1984 to 1989. Employees of the Internet Archive have published a software package for a reason (very few users could run the programs in this case, since the first Macintosh computers are gone, and for a long time), but they made an emulator for the browser. So to see and learn (or remember) how everything works, you can not take your eyes off the display of a modern desktop or PC.

Here there is not only software for work, but also games, many games. In particular, Dark Castle, Space Invaders, Lode Runner, and Microsoft Flight Simulator are available. Many are familiar not only to users of Apple products but also gamers who prefer gaming consoles or games under Windows.

As for the software, it has everything you need to work, including MacWrite, MacPaint. For each of the programs provides a detailed description, so that the modern user will not guess what is in front of him.

Previously, the Internet Archive has repeatedly uploaded large data sets that are not only of historical value. For example, in 2013, the service made available to tens of millions of users of the game for Atari. This archive is equipped with an emulator that allows you to run such games in the browser. In addition, the employees created a whole collection of “historical” software, called the Historical Software Collection.

In 2014 one of the employees of this organization created a program for automatic extraction of illustrations from books in the process of their scanning and recognition. Then the Internet Archive posted about 14 million different pictures.

Well, in 2015, about 2400 DOS games were laid out, also with a browser-based emulator.
