I'm FLAMING Mad.. As Usual, when I received my monthly issue of BYTE.
I have subscribed to BYTE for the last 10 years... It is a tradition
with me. But of late, (as if you haven't noticed) it has turned into
a mouthpiece for the IBM Clan..
"..In this case, the author based his report on experiences with a late
beta version of Multifinder, lengthy talks with APPLE programmers, and
APPLE documents. IF interest warrants, BYTE will formally review this
product at a latter date."
-- Novemeber issue of Byte
Hey, If it had been the Lastest verion of OS/2 you betcha it would
get the biggest review possible. But just look what we got..
Come on now, Byte is the small systems journal... Why has Apple
products taken a BACK SEAT in the last 2 years of Byte. You think
I'm kidding... Just look at the coverage the APPLE ][ got in byte
for a few year, not to mention TRS-80 and other.
But now its IBM this, and IBM that, and PC this and PC that...
Plus to Anger me more, the even have SPECIAL BYTE ISSUES devoted to
that greatest of machines and company THE IBM PC.
I guess we just don't rate a SPECIAL ISSUE... TOO INSIGNIFICANT...
WE JUST DON'T RATE....
time to cancell a time honored tradition
and pull out my issue of MACTUTOR.
