Summary: This month on Open Apple, we sit down with Ken Gagne and Andy Molloy of Juiced.GS, the longest running continuously published Apple II magazine (that you can still get in your mailbox to this day!). Juiced.GS is in its 23rd year, which has to be a record for magazines of almost any type.<br> Ken and Andy talk about the bloodless coup of the magazine, the long history of same, where things are headed, and why they hates trees.<br> Meanwhile, Quinn and Mike chat about FPGAs, nuclear weapons, and BBSes. What do you do when you need a mathematically provably correct piece of hardware to verify nuclear weapons compliance? Why, you grab your Apple II, of course! Duh!<br> Here’s a time sensitive news item that didn’t make it into the show- <a href="http://ultimacodex.com/2018/01/vote-for-your-favourite-fan-project-of-2017/" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="external noopener">vote for Nox Archaist and Lawless Legends</a> for your favorite Ultima-inspired indie games of 2017!<br> Stay tuned for a Tech segment where we follow up on last episode and go even deeper on fast IIgs graphics.
