Yeah it had an installer and program to read everything, it wasn't just a simple collection of scanned pages. I got it at a computer show back when I was like 10 or 12, and when "computer shows" were actually a thing in the late 90s hahaha

I have no idea, this was like 15 years ago haha It was probably Nero or Roxio. At this point I'm sure I could download the whole collection from somewhere.

I bought a CD boxset of all the MAD Magazine issues from launch until the late 90s (when I bought it). About 8 years later I still had it and attempted to back it up into ISOs It was like 6 discs and of course disc 5 was unreadable so the entire thing was useless :-/
