I subscribed to it for many many year. Jerry Pournelle made me laugh and the tech articles were excellent. Then it went bust and...well..frankly as others have stated, its all rubbish now.
I had about 5 years worth. I left them all in my parent's basement when I moved out. But then my folks also needed to move out and so they got rid of them. And rather than take them to the library they chucked them in the recycling bins.

He used to name his computers things like 'Big Cat' and 'Mothership' and endlessly drone on about how he struggled manfully to add 1Mb of RAM to his latest baby.Originally posted by lilelvis2000 View PostI subscribed to it for many many year.
