I beat you all! :-)  (Though my collection is missing a few early ones.)

I let my BYTE subscription lapse almost four years ago.  I've only
bought a few copies on the newstand since, and I've regretted buying
most of them too!  I haven't even appreciated Ciarcia's column lately,
but that's just 'cause I don't have any need for or interest in his
more recent projects.

BYTE, like most other "hobby" computer magazines is TOO PC oriented.
