Computer Magazines
Article Abstract:
Bartlett R. Rhoades, publisher of PC World and MacWorld, believes that the computer magazines that fail are those whose machines failed, who are undercapitalized or undermanaged. In 1983, fifty-five computer magazines were created. In 1984 a similar number failed, while thirty-five more were starting up. PC World has a circulation rate base of 250,000 and MacWorld 150,000. A photograph of Rhoades is included.

Making Archival or Back Up Copies of Computer Programs
Article Abstract:
There is some confusion among the educational institutions as to what constitutes software piracy. Laws allow for the reproduction of programs for archival use only, but there is no clear definition of archival. Purchasing or duplicating a program which was copied for archival purposes would probably be against the law. Six general rules for making for software copies are given.
