This triggers a lot of nostalgic feelings. We also had that in Belgrade during 80s, in a radio show hosted by late Zoran Modli. I even recorded some of emmited games although I didn't have a computer at a time. Access to software, music, or any kind of information was hard, slow, and limited back then.

Hats off to Žiga Turk and Moj Mikro magazine. That one along with Svet Kompjutera and Računari was the main source of IT knowledge for hungry minds in ex Yugoslavia.

Nostalgic feelings is what we have been going for. We have a large amount of (also scanned) issues of Slovenian and ex-Yu magazines in our collection: https://zbirka.racunalniski-muzej.si/revije/

Eh, I had all the issues of Moj Mikro while they were publishing in Serbo-Croatian, as well as all the issues of Svet Kompjutera, Računari, and PC until around 2007-2008 (Računari ceased publishing a few years later). They were all carefully packed in the basement until my mother decided to throw them all away, as who needs old stuff?

And I was planning to spend my retirement days playing with the ZX Spectrum and reading stuff that I immensely enjoyed as a kid. Tough luck :)

Žiga Turk was (at a much later time :)) also the minister of education, and he's a university professor. Just shows you that game developers can get far in life :)
