They are on the web if you look hard enough. Unfortunatley the whole collection is a mess. They should have distributed it in PDFs of the original pages to maintain the feeling of the originals. But NO, they html the whole thing poorly, and the original art is low res too. I am fortunate to have the university nearby, and there is nothing like flipping through old SciAm binders. The computer ads from the 50s-60s are incredible. where's my flying car? I want the future as depicted in the magazine. If you can have access to these, also notice the employment ads. Everybody was in the exciting field of computers, a rocket scientist, or electronics engineer. Dont forget to check out the Amateur Scientist book too. There is a relay based tic-tac toe machine, farmer fox, goose computer too. It is a collection of some of the best articles. In the magazine, Marvin Gardner's Mathematical puzzles column too! lots of binary and computer algorithms foretelling the future are in there. I grew up in the NASA environment. As A kid I got to go in the clean rooms and see the spacecraft. Then they brought me into the computer room to play tic tac-toe at the console. I want to go back... Or surround my basement with vaccum column tape drives and a console of switches and blinkinlights. Nevermind its a PC runing the show, but its running a s/360 emulator.. Grab your pocket protectors and slide rules, come over to my house! Randy _________________________________________________________________ Find what you need at prices you?ll love.
