Macintosh garden
Does anyone know what has happened to this very useful site?
Yeah thx for the informative reply.....I was hoping to hear if anybody had more detailed information as to whether the site would be returning....but your overly sarcastic reply is very helpful....................
Sometimes it is down. It looks like it is up right now. If in doubt, check on http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com
All of the sudden the domain expired. This JUST happened to me. It was working fine, did a search, wasn't loading, came back, IT'S A DAMN SQUATTER.
Hmm, Macintosh Garden is working fine for me. Did you typo the URL?
I was using Google. Oh well, all seems correct again.
Yeah, their Domain Name was down for a little bit. (half a day or so.)
Looks like it has gone down again
Theres a lot of stuff I can only find on there which they aren't allowing downloads on due to the "cost of bandwidth", if the software is really abandonware then the site owners should just create torrent files and distribute that way.
I have always wondered about that site. Most of it is old enough to abandonware, albeit some of the stuff i see might be on the borderline, while some of the stuff is still copyrighted/warez, like all the non-free OS stuff posted.
Back up again.
I was involved in Macintosh Garden early on. They've moved into questionable territory now by linking to torrent files of non-abandonware software.
I'd be worried they'll get shut down. It used to be just abandonware, and now it's turning more into a Mac warez torrent site.

i guess the best thing to do now is archive/mirror everything you do see, because i seriously doubt its going to be up long.
Seems to be down again xx(
If you read the text, it's a temporary blackout to protest the SOPA and PIPA bills. It'll be back in a day or two.
