AmigaWorld was underwritten in some form by CBM – the Columbia Journalism
Review reported that last summer. I don't remember which issue. I asked an
editor at AW about this once, and he said they had enough money, and I know
they are planning the December and January issues already. They work so far in
advance! BTW, Amazing Computing's sole funding was Don Hicks' mortgage on his
house. How's that for dedication? The magazine is doing well. The issue
after the COMDEX issue (that's August cover) will be four-color cover, if all
goes well. Hopefully, it will expand past 64 pages, and jump to eighty pages
soon. Maybe the July issue, if we can write enough about COMDEX.
