Lighten up! Has everyone forgotton how sterile, boring, and unimaginative the old format was? It was such an insult to my humanity, I rarely read articles even if they interested me. This new format makes the magazine much less of a tooth-pull to look at. Now the new format isn't perfect, but how many magazine formats *are* perfect? The point, for me at least, is: it's much better than the old format, and I am glad someone finally did something about it! -- -paul pmartz@dsd.es.com Evans & Sutherland
