I talked with Mark Compton, Editor for UNIX Review, today. He assured me that
UNIX Review is alive and well and, in fact, is growing. Publication continues
monthly.

UNIX Review has recently been placing more emphasis on subscriptions and less
on bookstore sales which may explain its absence in bookstores it used to be
sold in. It has never been widely distributed in bookstores as this is
generally unprofitable for special-interest magazines.

I have received my copy every month. If you are one of the small percentage
of people having problems (with a large circulation someone is bound to have
problems) you can contact them at 415-397-1881 or UNIX Review, 500 Howard St.,
San Francisco, CA 94501.

You can stop by their booth at USENIX this summer and get a free copy.

(I am a Contributing Editor.)
