BYTE! Don't forget Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar. That, and the ongoing adventures at Chaos Manor were pretty much "required" reading... IIRC, Compute was the other one I hated to miss.

My other favourite was Kilobaud. I had to love the soap opera aspects of how Wayne Green lost Byte and started Kilobaud. For the more serious stuff, there was Dr. Dobb's Journal of Computer Calisthenics & Orthodontia -- I think I still have my photocopy of Dr. Dobb's Journal of Tiny Basic Calisthenics & Orthodontia stored in the basement. Li-Chen Wang's Palo Alto Tiny Basic for those who were in love with weird abbreviations and wanted an interpreter that ran in 1.75KB of memory. I think Li-Chen was also responsible for one of the most impressive if useless programs in the early days of personal computing -- the Kaleidoscope program for the Cromenco Dazzler -- Pacific Computer in Vancouver (one of the if not the first computer stores here) had it displaying to a TV in the front window and I used to see people gathering around to watch it.

Hmmm... driving down to Seattle to pick up a portable cassette recorder at J.C. Penney's to use with a Tarbell tape interface since it was one of the few that was known to work well.

Enough of the maundering. Can this thread be driven any further off topic?

Regards,
David
