BL> I agree. This PC Computing is definitely better than what we
BL> had before. I wish they'd come out with one on disc or
BL> cassette, though. I also wish that some of these magazines
BL> would start to produce editions on computer disk.
Byte Magazine is available on computer disk, although it is a little expensive.
It costs $90 per year, and their delivery isn't very regular. You can also
subscribe to BIX, their own-line service, for a fixed cost, and use at night and
on week ends, and download the magazine, or the parts you want.

I am sorry to say, that BYTE Mag is no longer available on disk. They told me when I went to re-subscribe that there was not enough response so they cancelled it. A sad day! I have have a number of back issues I would be willing to share on disk.
