 Bo>...I was happy to see that there's a new magazine dedicated to what we call
 Bo> Retro Computing. It's called COMPUTE!s GAZETTE...

This was great news.  First Peri Fractic buys Commodore, now this.  What's
next, parachute pants come back in style?  MTV actually shows music videos?  It's a good time to be retro.

I looked through the sample (partial) issue and was impressed with what I saw, so I bought the complete (digital) premiere issue, as well as subscribed (also digital only).  It's very reminiscent of the original CG, complete with type-in programs, user group listings and everything!  I was tempted to buy the print edition, but I really don't have any place for more magazines.

I'm reading the issue now and so far I only have one complaint:  Attaching a password to the PDF.  Why?  By that I mean, what's the point?  Getting around it is simple, and completely legit.  Once you have the issue open, just resave it as a PDF.  Bodda-boom bodda-bing, you got an unlocked CG.  No hacking required.

I'm not finished yet, but I'm throughly enjoying the issue.  I'm looking forward to the next one.
