Stats? Cite? The use of Linux may be increasing, but enough to qualify Asia as "moving to Linux?" Piracy of MS products is common throughout Asia, regardless of the occasional bootleg clampdown theater.

I'm not very hopeful for the new edition. From the press release: the new BYTE "will serve as the professional’s guide to consumer technology, providing news, analysis, reviews, and insight across the media gamut."
Not reaching very high, are they? This doesn't sound like the publication that gave us in-depth articles on every bus type from S-100 on, languages such as Forth and Smalltalk, and Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar ...
Zed used a cascade of Adobe Caslon, Hoefler, Georgia, Garamond and Times for the body. Good fonts, all of them. Whose fault is it that all except Times render poorly?*
"The crazy colors should tell you that this is only for the brave."
Maybe the same goes for the fonts.
* I checked Firefox, Chrome and IE on an XP3 system. With Chrome's Developer Tools, I removed fonts from the front of the cascade until the type looked "right", and arrived at Times. Bah.
The graphics and layout are nicely done ... but I'm not sure to what end. (I realize that's part of the problem of announcing stealth projects.)
The layout will have to change if the teaser is presented all at once.
