Box 2409 Redmond, WA 98073-2409 +1 206 868 0913 $25/year (six issues) Their publishing schedule is pretty sporadic, the technical content is low, and many issues are not much more than repackaged AT&T press releases. Some net.folks (i.e., Len) have had bad experiences with the folks at 3BJ, and their ill feelings are not unwarranted. Nevertheless, they recently moved from Montana to Washington state, and the magazine has taken on a new, slicker look. In addition, some people (i.e. "me") are working to help get some fairly technical articles published -- I'm told that my "Running a Standalone Shell on a 3B2" article will be in the next issue. I support the 3BJ because I want there to be a journal for the 3B family. While it is no kind of technical powerhouse now, it can only get better as they get on more firm footing. If you know something about anything in the 3B family (UNIX PC and 63* too), offer to write them an article. I have found them reasonable to deal with (others will differ), and it is kind of fun to be published :-). For more info, contact the publisher, Paul Owens, at attmail!alpha!plo, and if you want to write an article, I'm available for writing advice...
