💾 Byte magazine was an early microcomputer magazine, influential in the late 1970s and throughout the 1980s because of its wide-ranging editorial coverage.

Same here. BASIC programs were the only info I ever had on biorhythms. Never realised that there was a cult-like craze surrounding it and until decades later

See page 20 of Byte Magazine
(April 1976), "Biorhythms for Computers" by Joy and Richard Fox

@shapiro Late '70s fan; I played music at the same Hartford coffee house as Chris Morgan before he was editor. After tech writing at MultiMate '84-'87, wrote one article for Byte '88 between trips to Peterborough for interviews. Took a F-T offer from a boating magazine instead, but my CV on landed me freelance sideline w/ Harry McCracken at .
I setup a Fido-ready boating BBS in Newport, R.I., to join a subnet called Ship2Shore, but no $, so in '93 went for PhD instead.

I ran two of the earliest sites, one at and another personal one in my basement. and I discovered as he was first hatching the idea of in the early 80s. I was West Coast Bureau Chief for Byte, and John (who had just migrated over from InfoWorld) theoretically worked for me.
