Box 130 Hornbrook, CA 96044 it's currently free, but will become $1/issue soon. Still a spectacular deal -- these people are creative and very much in touch with the real needs and real technology. Personal note -- it works great. I've been powering all the systems on my bicycle for years with Solarex panels, and that includes in the new system 8 computers (including a Mac portable and a 286), satcom, celphone, active cooling, and a lot more. Very practical stuff, solar, at least outside the Pacific Northwest! -Steve Roberts, Nomadic Research Labs
