I stand corrected. The "Kilobaud" was dropped around 1982; I thought that it
remained in small letters, but I just checked my back issues and it's gone.
However, 80 Microcomputing was a separate sister publication to Kilobaud
devoted to TRS-80 systems. It did change its name to 80 Micro in the 80s.
Sorry for the confusion.

Kilobaud and Byte were both started by Wayne Green. IIRC Kilobaud grew out

I think it Became Byte.
Not true on either count. Byte started at issue #1 in September, 1975.
Kilobaud Microcomputing started at the end of 1976 or beginning of 1979.
I don't have the issues in front of me to check but I believe this is
where you got it mixed up with Byte. Kilobaud and Microcomputing were
seperate mags that merged at some point. of another Green publication for Hams called 73. 1976
might be right but
it was started before 79.
I don't recall a mag called Microcomputing that merged with Kilobaud but
at
some point it changed it's name to Kilobaud
Microcomputing and later 80
Microcomputing.

Bob
