Recently came across this magazine from the Linux Format on a second hand vintage shop and obviously had to go for it! These magazines are still produced these to this day btw. However, when I went to linuxformat.com after receiving my magazine to check out some of their other ones, I saw that they were in fact just celebrating their 25-year anniversary and have put out a digital version of the very magazine I bought - for everyone to view digitally!

Their announcement:

25-years ago in this month of May, back in 2000 (just after the giant Y2K meltdown that flipped every plane upsidedown) Linux Format was first published. To help celebrate and remember this momentous pinnacle of publishing prowess (and while we still have server access) we’ll be popping out a few classic issues of Linux Format in PDF format. As we already have it to hand here’s issue LXF001 with a very young looking Nick Veitch.

The magazine can be found digitally at: https://linuxformat.com/files/pdfs/LXF001.pdf

Either way, I had no idea of the timing but thought it was a fun experience and worthy to share here. Enjoy a step back into memory-lane!

Have a great rest of your day!
