History[edit]

Mac Publishing LLC was created in September 1997 as a joint venture between International Data Group and Ziff-Davis, publishers of the two largest magazines focused on the Apple Macintosh at the time, IDG's Macworld and Ziff-Davis's MacUser, respectively. Originally called 'Mac Publications,' the company's name was quickly changed when it became clear that most everyone was referring to the company as 'Mac Publishing' instead.

The joint venture between these two former archrivals occurred at a weak time for the Mac market, when both companies were unsure about the long-term viability of two large Mac-focused monthly magazines. The announcement of the joint venture occurred just days before the August 1997 Macworld Expo in Boston.
