Hello all,

I found a small stack of DDJ at a local used book store today, and while I quickly grabbed them and headed for a reading table, I decided to leave them in the store for another buyer.

It was great to flip thru the archives of those early years once again, I had to make a sober assessment of what was actually in the books (lots of Tiny BASIC implementation notes, write-ups about FORTH, and dust-ups over 50 year-old technology) and the likelihood I'd find any time to actually go thru them. I love books about/from the 'early days' (1975 on), but at $75 for the collection, I couldn't do it. I could justify $5-7/book, but they were $15-25/each!

Anyone else like looking back at the 'early days'?
