Kind of a follow-up to yesterday's blost, but also informative for those who work with PDFs in Linux.

Thanks to https://infinitemac.org for enabling me to get the screenshot of Preview.app on NeXTStep 1.0. So awesome!!!!

(I will happily add/remove you from the chorus upon request! :)

P.S., I really hope someone gets the 1980s movie reference. Even though I've never seen said movie.

P.P.S., @scruss informs me that Firefox's built-in PDF viewer can do (almost) all of the annotation things I've been trying to do with multiple apps. I'm kinda shook!

@mihaip just enabled #InfiniteMac virtual machines to be embedded directly onto a website, and it works so well! I turned this on across https://www.classicmacdemos.com/ and it's a nice improvement to be able to play a game demo or explore a magazine cover CD without even leaving the page.

#InfiniteMac

Relive the 1980s in the browser, with #Apple and #NeXT operating systems.

I've finally gotten around to adding support for #InfiniteMac's new Mac OS X virtual machines to the collection of magazine cover CDs at https://classicmacdemos.com/discs/ . Should make it easier for people to try out some of the game and app demos that were distributed with 2000's-era Macintosh magazines in their browser. Fun!

Woah https://infinitemac.org/ is an amazing, browser-based classic Mac emulator. I love time capsules like these.
