Nibble seems to be doing as well as ever. It still does mostly technical-type stuff (new programs in every issue) instead of reviews like InCider does. I've gotten Nibble almost as long as I've had my IIe (about 4 1/2 years). Yes, it has gotten a little thinner; the reason they supply is that they get fewer advertisers, but they keep the non-ad content the same. Also, they haven't had a price increase since 1983. I think Nibble is probably one of the best things going for the Apple II.
