  Thanks for the pointer.  I'll summarize:

     PC-NDX was developed by Dick O'Kuehl (not PC Magazine)
     Order by calling 219-256-1045

     1986 index  $ 8.00
     1987 index  $ 9.00
     1988 index  $19.00, includes quarterly updates

     Index includes over 5000 keywords in each volume (!), with title,
     page number and brief description.  He also indexed technical columns
     and letters.

  By the way, I also found a free index, Microcomputer Index, in the
  library.  My library only has it through Oct 87.  It provides summaries
  of articles, indexed by product, company, type of product, etc.

  If anyone knows of specific reviews covering the areas mentioned in the
  basenote, I'm still interested.
