Comment on A Tongue-in-Cheek Look Back at Broderbund's 'The Print Shop' (2021)

Comments

The Print Shop and Bannermania have been extremely popular in Turkey in the 80’s and 90’s.

Yeah, I could be wrong, but wasn't there one called just "Banner"? It would leverage the matrix printer's chained paper, and print the multi-page banners all the way through. I've never had such an experience anymore when laser printers emerged, and I had to cut margins off and tape the pieces awkwardly together.

Yes, everyone called it Banner probably because it was the name of the executable, but the software was named Bannermania, IIRC. I don’t remember two different banner apps.
