Wow, awesome server changes! I've moved the upload to MG proper. Not having to rely on a MU or something is great- I use S3 for my MacAddict magazine scans but I'm content to only having those on my S3. I've pulled my old external HD with my CD rips from 2010, so all my content is the same as it was in 2010. Might even start re-ripping things. Exciting!

Thank you Bob Kiwi!

P.S.: I have looked at my old My Mediafire Archive forum topic via wayback machine (why this topic were deleted? It contains lots of information about my archive, Bob Kiwi's discs, UFK's discs, and more). I want PowerMac G4 Cube In-Store Demo February 2001 CD and Virtual PC discs.

Thanks Bob Kiwi: The image looks good & unchanged since your re-build notice in the Description above.
You mightn't be aware of the server changes since you were here last, but they've been pretty major. Its now safe to upload to the internal Garden server with up and DL limits of 1 GB. Haven't seen those dreaded amazonaws error messages since about here Wink

I've reuploaded the original toast image, zipped by Mac OS X 10.5.8 PPC. Guess it's a good time to scan the site for anything else I upped that fell off. Enjoy!

@ Bob Kiwi: Many thanks and its good to see you're still alive and kicking. You can remove the notice at the top including dotted line when you're able to replace the image. Cheers.

@Bob Kiwi: Thank you.
@Miketomtom: The second CD image from the Spring 1997 is the second edition of MacAdvocate Spring 1997 which difference the contents from the first edition of MacAdvocate Spring 1997.
This file directory is from first edition of MacAdvocate Spring 1997 while this directory is from second edition of MacAdvocate Spring 1997.
P.S.: You can still call me "Sheepmyshaver123".

I'll reupload the original file. MacAdvocate II is different from the first (and the slightly different first that I also uploaded in addition to what was here). I do apologize, I've forgotten to reupload all the files that fell off of MU. I'll update ASAP.

Fortuna, I'll wait 24 hrs for any other suggestions, but as there seem to be two similar MacAdvocate CD images from 1997 archived here.

[Edit] Leaving page here in the meantime, hoping that if someone who has DL'd it previously sees this and can re-upload it to the page.

[Edit 2] @Fortuna: That 2nd Advocate CD you uploaded to the Spring 1997 page isn't this one, is it? If it is, then this page can be deleted.

Hopefully the file works on a fresh download. A few people have downloaded it so far with no reported issues! If it's still bad I will download it myself and if need be recompress and reupload.
