I don't know how many of you read Computer Gaming World but, if you don't know this, Stephane Racle had scanned issues 1-100 into PDFs - fantastic work!
Many asked for issues 101+ to also be available. Stephane needed to get both the issues that could be destroyed in the scanning process plus a faster scanner as some of the issues are monsters apparently. Stephane spent the last year raising money for both the issues and the scanner. The amount needed was raised as of a few weeks ago and issue 101 (December 1992) was posted yesterday.
I'm "thumbing" through issue 101 and the reviews include Darklands; the previews include Dune II; and ads include Lure of the Temptress.
For those interested, issues 1-101 can be downloaded from the gallery at cgw.vintagegaming.org (I still can't figure out how to do links elegantly). Also consider donating to the effort. Stephane's done a marvelous job at preserving issues of CGW. CGW and GOG complement each other well.
(I should note I have NO connection to the site other than being a supporter of the work being done.)
