RE: Midrange Computing is liquidating.

The August 2001 issue of News/400 just hit my desk and it has only 80 pages.

I had started to notice that the News/400 had been getting a little thin
also.    I found some old issues from 1993 that had 250 pages, 1999 issues
with 150 pages, and now the July 2001 with 104.    Magazines like Midrange
Computing and News/400 used to be one of the few sources of technical
information.   I am sure that advertising revenue is down but I wonder how
subscriptions have been doing.    With all of the mailing lists and search
engines out there it is hard not to find a lot of information on whatever
it is that you need to know.    Will this same trend continue with user
groups and seminars?
