MacHack was a developers conference with a twist, it was all about the coolest hacks and focused on the Mac. A lot of neat software came out of these conferences.

This archive contains the Papers, Sessions, and Hacks from Mac Hack 2001. I believe it to be exactly what is on the CD, but I don't have the original CD. It has software and source for Mac OS 9 and extremely early Mac OS X systems, but most of the Carbonized software fails to run under Mac OS X Snow Leopard (however, a notable exception is a Mac OS X version of http://macintoshgarden.org/games/secret-about-box from NotEnoughSecrets)

You may be able to buy the 2002/2003 conference CDs from http://www.hax.com/BestHackCDForm.html

If there are any exceptional hacks/programs in the archive, do comment. Do check out the Secret About Box under The Hacks->NotEnoughSecrets!

I would highly expect many of these hacks to not run well under SheepShaver/Basilisk or under later Mac OS X operating systems. Many of the RealBasic Carbon apps fail to launch under Mac OS X 10.6

Ok I saw it on the forum when I came back I'm glad that MG will be able to host their files now.

We are told that files are being moved to a new server, so I expect the link will work again soon.

Sorry to say guys but the link isn't working. I was really interested in this but the site throws up a "Page not found" error
