RE: Performance Computing (was Unix Review) closing down ...



Man, shoot! We lost Byte, then KiloBaud, then Dr. Dobb's Journal of Computer
Calisthenics and Orthodontia (Running Light Without Over Byte), and now Unix
Review/Performance Computing - what's next? Webster's Dictionary?????  I'm
hanging on to my Scelbi 8008 code card - it's the only thing
left..............

Subject: Performance Computing (was Unix Review) closing down ...


Hello all,

just got in the mail my January 2000 issue of Performance Computing 
(formerly known as Unix Review) and read with disbelief that 
"For a variety of business reasons, Miller Freeman has decided to
discontinue the publication of this magazine. Thus, with this issue
we bid you, our faithful reader, farewell, and extend to you our
gratitude for the support and additional insight that you have
provided to us over these many years."

Pretty sad. After the printed version of Byte (a new, online version,
is available at byte.com ) here's another staple of computing history
that is closing down. I wonder if they are consolidating operations and
folding into the 'SysAdmin' magazine.

What do you guys think ?

Marino
