On 1 January Czechoslovakia peacefully splits in two. In September Israeli and Palestinian leaders shake hands in Washington after the Oslo Accords. The Maastricht Treaty takes effect in November. On the web, the Mosaic browser shows ordinary people what the Internet can be.
The start of their anecdote. The album's other cards are for you to discover in the game.
Panasonic
'Ex-Commodore West', the trade called the firm, so many of its engineers came from Commodore. Trip Hawkins left Electronic Arts in 1993 to found his own company, aiming to license a 32-bit console to many makers. Panasonic's model came out that year, but sales fell short in 1994.

Apple
First called Figaro, the project began in 1987 with a bold goal: a tablet that could read joined-up handwriting. That proved the hardest part to program. Of three sizes, Apple kept the smallest, 'Junior', for the Newton launched in August 1993 and dropped in 1998.

Atari
The only 64-bit console, Atari claimed against Sony's 32-bit console and the Saturn; critics said its two 64-bit chips were mere graphics helpers. Despite clever hardware the 1993 console had few games, with Alien vs Predator and Tempest 2000 as its big exclusives.
