Last week my beloved iMac stopped working for good. It's been more than a decade of a fantastic relationship, but now I have to accept the fact that it won't be with me anymore... With that in mind, I've collected these vintage Mac icons, most (maybe all) made by the great Susan Kare in the best 80's. Curiously, you will see that many of them have remained until today with very few modifications, but others (that dot matrix printer, those faxes, those floppy disks...) have definitely passed into the History. I remember with particular displeasure the d*** Bomb, which appeared unexpectedly when the computer crashed -too frecuently- and you then lost all the work not saved manually. Freaky old times. My favourite character still being Clarus, the dogcow (at the Z, of course). Hope you like them.

A much updated version of the Chicago font used in early Macintosh computers from the 80's. Changes include: Made numerals tabular, extended language support, and additional symbols.
This is a clone of Chicago 12No saben, pero parece que me encariñé mucho de la tipografía Monaco_15 de Susan Kare (Aunque tenga sus Errores).
Lo que pasa con la tipografía es que primero hice la versión bitmap para Windows (.FON) y lo extendí a todos los caracteres Unicode para este formato para que no salga un error en el soporte de idiomas.
Después de muchos años, pude regresar a la pagina que hice esta versión de Monaco_15 llamándolo “MonacoTTF” y lo comencé a desarrollar en el 10/1/2022 y logré extender la cantidad de símbolos disponibles para la fuente.
Recomiendo que lo descarguen su versión TrueType porque comprobé que la versión OpenType contiene errores
