Byte was my first too (and later on NET and Computerworld -- great education deriving from both).

Yeah, LISP was a bit much -- but hey! it also included an article with assembly code examples for the Z-80 Spectrum; I wish I had this magazine back in the day...

A thing I noticed: so many practical examples and code excerpts; I also spotted some math, sporting a Riemann integral no less :) - today's magazines are kindergarten-level by comparison. Of course, today's magazines are not aimed to the technical hobbyist anymore, so it's understandable... Btw: who are today's magazines targeting? Second question: what magazines?!
