Whether they actually went under or had a sex change
is not clear.  But it looks like what started out as
an "add-on" feature, SUPERNET, has taken over.

I think this is a very bad idea.  I've even said so
on SUPERNET, only to have my comments deleted by 
their censors.

I looked forward to receiving SR every month, and
usually read my issues at a cafe after work, or
during lunch, or in the backyard at home.

I found SUPERNETs interface to be so lame and
retarded that I'm loathe to use it.  I guess one
could search around to find the articles  you'd
want to read, download them, print them, and then
read them next time you go to the bathroom.

But why?

Its really dumb.  And especially if now they are
going to ask us to PAY for this.

I would complain regarding the unused $$ of your
subscription.  Sounds to me like they are pocketing
the cash to cover expenses.

Maybe its time for some one else to pick yp the
pieces are publish another magazine for the
supercomputing community.

How about "Supercomputer User" for starters?
Anyone want to invest?
