Ron, My "problem" with Compute's Amiga coverage is lack of distribution. I don't subscribe to it. My wife is the self proclaimed "catalog queen" and, because of it, I get about 10 pounds of mail a day. I don't need to add more — besides, a magazine would get lost in with all of those catalogs <grin>. Since Compute's distribution of the Amiga version is poor, I don't find it at the grocery store like the regular Compute edition, and I refuse to drive 20 miles just to pick up a copy. That aside, I have nothing be the utmost respect for Denny. He is a real Amiga advocate, loves his job and does it well. He's a credit to the Amiga community. I have no problem with the content of the Amiga version of the mag (other than the PlaySkool thing which I thought was in bad taste only because it promoted the toy computer image). The problem I have with the mag is that of distribution — and that's out of the hands of the editorial staff. -sja
