In the early days of the PC revolution one of the best things about PC Mag was it was absolutely gigantic and most of it was advertising- there was still great content, but much of the value was in reading the ads.
Computer Shopper holds a special place my heart.
> PC goes bi-weekly. Issues are, on average, 400 pages.
And no one here who lived through the era – before the mid-1990 – will fail to remember that the number of firms competing to sell personal computers was far greater back then. It seems that we have a lot more concentration of firms in these areas today.
But yes, I do miss reading magazines for the ads ;-)
