I recently discovered that in additional to old datasheets, databooks, manuals, etc. the bitsavers.org website (http://www.bitsavers.org/) has scans of old magazines such as Computer Design and Bell Systems Technical Journal. Just last night, I discovered that the World Radio History website (https://worldradiohistory.com/index.htm) has a lot of electronics and a few computer magazines, including much of Byte, Radio-Electronics, and Popular Electronics. Since it might be of use to some here, I thought I'd mention it.

In the 1980's Computer Design magazine was sending me their magazines at work, free. I don't know how I got on the list, but they get money from the advertisers for each "subscriber" who is made out to qualify. Back then, I wasn't very interested; but in the years since then I've wished I had kept a few issues. Now they're available online. Thanks.

I did keep a few issues! :P Also Radio Electronics and a few others. It's the sort of thing I enjoy reading when I'm bed at the end of the day.

Thanks, Sean, for letting us know the stuff is also online.

You're welcome. I hope folks find something useful in what is up there, or at least have some fun with it. Alas, I've found it can be a bit of time sink.
