Have to say that compared to the Amiga or Atari ST, the classic #Macintosh software library is woefully covered on the web.
Most pages don't even state which OS or machine(s) an application or game will actually run on, so it's largely pot luck much of the time. All kinds of historical context is missing, etc.
I'm thinking that perhaps once I have a good collection of software myself, I may have to start a project of my own to categorize it.
