Fair Witness: Interesting early 90s software

One of the things I most like about vintage Macs is the sheer variety of imaginative software produced for them, much of which is still unsurpassed. In those days, it was all about the interface and the applications rather than the web or media.

Here’s a program I recently came across via an archive of MacUser. Hopefully the PDF review extracted and attached will whet someone’s appetite. I see that there is a copy available on at least one of the usual abandonware websites for download. Sadly, it is not 100% complete, and we are missing the substantial manual, but there is hopefully enough there for the tinkerer. I imagine that it could be adapted to many uses, not just projects but also research and brainstorming.

And I just learned (from the well-known Outliners review in ATPM) that the company was bought out and the software re-released/ updated as InfoDepot, which got to v.2.5 and is on the usual repository for such things.
