Hi, all,
I have a collection of most of BYTE Magazine from the beginning through
about 1985. Instead of selling it on eBay, I'd rather find a home for it
where people can enjoy it. I also have a small collection of other

sue I remember finding very interesting.
IIRC it was a Byte Magazine (certainly the graphic was very in keeping with
Byte cover artwork). I wonder if anyone recalls it - Google image searches
have pulled a blank which means it either wasn't Byte (and just looked like
