[I have changed the newsgroups line from the rather ridiculous comp.lang.c, comp.lang.c++,comp.lang.misc,comp.sys.ibm.pc,comp.sys.apple,comp.sys.mac to just `comp.lang.misc,comp.misc', and redirected followups to the latter.] In article <14047@agate.BERKELEY.EDU> dean@violet.berkeley.edu (Dean Pentcheff) writes: >Summary: Is the downward progression of computer magazines inevitable? Yes. All these magazines, unless their charters are carefully written so as to prevent it, follow this trend of `technical' => `business'. (Most of them soon follow through with `business' => fold.) I am not sure that this should be lamented. Instead, when your favourite `technical rag' turns commercial, start a new one. Someday you too may get rich selling it out :-) . -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci Dept (+1 301 454 7163) Domain: chris@mimsy.umd.edu Path: uunet!mimsy!chris
