San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 11 Keywords: Arrrgh! I can't believe it! I gave Infoworld one last chance when they reverted to the newspaper format, and what thanks do I get - as of next week Jerry Pournell starts writing for Infoworld. Damn! I cancelled Byte, then Computers & Electronics and Creative Computing get killed by Ziff Davis, and now this. Not content with driveling all over Byte, Jerry moves in to ruin more magazines. What's next some "expert" Modula 2 articles by Jerry in Dr. Dobbs? The announcement came with a blurb welcoming Jerry, and praising his "wry" and "insightful" writing. Sorry, but that's too much. I'm off to send my cancellation notice. Wonder if I can get a refund... Paul van de Graaf sdcsvax!sdcc7!ln63fkn U. C. San Diego
