more interesting to scan the actual pages? If I could buy a DVD
with the first ten years, I could at least decimate my piles in
the basement. The article compendiums that are offered for Byte,
DDJ, etc. are interesting, but so are the ads, and they aren't included.
Agreed, but I'd be happy just knowing which issue contains what at this
point. Besides, viewing digital copies of either ads or articles just
isn't the same as fingering through one of those light-weight
random-access mags. (And I think BYTE's post-1993 CDized mags include
ads, but who cares about anything after 1993?)
