GUESS WHAT? VOLUME 1. IS OUT NOW!

Yes, the biggest book ever written about the history of the computer demoscene is completed and available from our resellers right now! The 224 page book contains the complete history of the Commodore 64 and the Amiga, both the machines and the underground subcultures around them, from the cracker-warez scene to the demoscene, from hacking and phreaking to the ASCII art scene.
