I recently found out that the reason why diskette magazines, like
Compute's ST & ST X-Press, are sealed is because *the bookstores want
them to do it*.  This information comes directly from a reply to a
letter which I sent to Rich Decowski, editor of ST X-Press: "And it 
[the magazine] isn't sealed to try to hide it!  It is done so because
the book chains WANT it that way.  I would rather have it unsealed so
that people can see how much information is in each issue."  By having
the magazine sealed, book stores cut their losses from people stealing
the diskette inside the magazine.
