I agree with Stephen & Steve's comments.  When the new CACM format
started, it looked to me like someone was having a competition on how
many different fonts could be used in a single publication (or on a
single page).  Even if the content remains the same, the look of the
publication has become really "cheap".  It's as if they're trying to
become a more "mainstream" publication (like "Byte", et.al.).  I hope
not.

Anyway, here's another vote of dissapointment at the new CACM format,
for whatever it's worth.
