I want to get a subscription to MacTutor. I would also like to get back issues of this magazine. I am often referred to articles in this magazines when I get responses to my programming questions. I have looked at Duane Williams' database of old articles and am interested. How do I get a subscription and where can I get old issues? ***************************************************************** * Adam C.

MacTutor seems to have a brand new approach. I just got their latest issue, and I liked it about 100% better. They have a new cover (I actually liked the old one better), but (as they say on late night commercials): wait! that's not all. I found almost all of the articles very interesting and useful (which is not always the case), and they are cutting back drastically on their coverage of FORTH and BASIC, and increasing their OOP coverage. All in all, quite an improvement -- at least based on this one issue. Robert ------ ra_robert@gsbacd.uchicago.edu ------ generic disclaimer: all my opinions are mine
