(Today's the fifteenth for me if congress can do similar clock tricks... <^_-> ) We BOTH have liberally flamed about BoB no longer being in BYTE. Does no good. TPTB at BYTE are planning on a quarterly(?) (or less frequently) LARGE BoB supplement to BYTE. THere will be several such which are machine specific. There's supposed to be an Amiga one, an IBM one, a Mac one, .... IMHO that is a bad choice on their part. However THEIR "TPTB" types have decreed that there will be a rigid ratio between advertisement and editorial pages. (This is a fixed ratio, not changing as some people think - I am told...) This dictated its removal and this new setup. ANyway - roughly speaking that is what has happened and some suggestion re the plans for BoB.
