Nice! I remember this site, even though I never used the forums!  I remember Jag's House more like this:https://web.archive.org/web/20010822203605/http://www.jagshouse.com:80/index.html Here's some links from the past you brought back to mind. This first one talks about vMac and System 1 to 7: http://web.archive.org/web/20101209045702/http://www.nd.edu/~jvanderk/sysone/ I posted the other link on its own since it's one of my favorite classic Mac sites!!

Jag was also a good musician. Mainly acoustical blues, as I recall he has a couple CDs, and you could buy his music on the his site. He also built cigar box bangos which I thought were pretty cool. His family owned a company that made Mac accelerator cards (PowerLogic ?). It was bought out by OWC in the early oughts. He was a big user and expert on early Macs and his site (Jag's House?) was a real go to place for all things early Mac.

Oh yes, I remember the page as a great source of info, but never knew it had a forum. Thanks for that link! I like the simple yet elegant design of the forum. :-) Interesting details about Jag's @wove. Since you're using a past tense ("was a good musician") I assume he went ahead to the other world already?

I am sorry about the confusion of tenses. My use of the past tense just refers to what he was up to a while back. As far as I know he is doing just fine. His current web site is jagshouse.com, where you can purchase one of his instruments. If you wish to learn to play one of his instruments he does have a youtube channel as well. During the later half of the 90s I was a moderator on the “Classic Mac Digest”. At that point “classic Mac” had a different meaning than today. People who belonged to the group would send via email comments and tips and whatnot to a server, where a moderator would aggregate the emails, strip out identifying information put them into a single email and disperse them back to the group. Jag was one of the most commonly referenced resources of information. He had a website up at that time, full of great information. Dan Knight was a member of the list and felt that in the exciting age of the rise of web information on old Macs could be dispersed via better methods and left to go an and form LowEndMac. Jag (William Jagitsch) was certainly a big presence in the first incarnation of “Classic Macs”
