The collection continues through the mid-to-late 1990s.
Byte magazine started publishing in late 1975 and quickly became one of the premier small (personal) computer monthlies on the market. The earliest issues were very hardware and software centric while later issues tended more towards product reviews than down-to-the-register technical topics. Even so, various Byte columns still kept the technical torch alight.
