Check out the advertising content and percentage of _d e v e l o p_ and
other publications.  About 0% for _d e v e l o p_ and 60% for other
publications.  You also receive a CD-ROM with every issue which contains
a COMPLETE linked and cross-referenced archive of EVERY back issue.  For
some people the price should have been closer to $50, but the Developer
Press group kept it as reasonable as they could.
