As I recall, this whole affair began with someone posting an "I've been trying to cancel my BYTE subscription for about six weeks now, to no avail! Has anybody else run into this problem?" article, which had several followups which seemed to confirm the ineptitude of the new management. That was, what? Three months ago? Maybe the cancellation department is getting better with practice. :-) -- Brad Morrison Ferranti International Controls Corporation phone: (713) 274-5449 12808 W.
