Printing's Gateway Drug

Printing's Gateway Drug

The Print Shop, launched by Brøderbund in 1984, changed the landscape of printing stuff—by making it dead simple. And it was a huge hit that helped the computing industry sell a lot of printers. So why haven't you heard about it lately? Good question. Today's issue investigates the app's history and where the heck it went. (You can partly blame the annoying guy from Shark Tank for its decline.)
