Thanks for checking out our little corner of eBay! This chunky 1992 issue of PC Magazine will appeal to retro-computing collectors, tech historians, and anyone who loves flipping through page after page of early-90s hardware and software advertising.

This is the October 27, 1992 issue of PC Magazine (Vol. 11, No. 18), built around a cover feature on the first wave of ultra-light "subnotebook" computers, alongside articles on font management, industrial-strength e-mail systems, and local-bus video. What really makes this issue fun is the sheer volume of period advertising packed inside — full-page spreads from Dell, Digital (DECpc), CompuAdd, AMD, Swan Technologies, USA Flex, MicroWarehouse, and The PC Zone, all touting 386/486 systems, dot-matrix printers, and DOS 5.0 upgrades at prices that feel like a time capsule. At roughly 500 pages, it's a dense, tactile slice of computing history — the kind of thing that makes a great display piece or research reference for anyone into vintage tech.

Details:

• Title: PC Magazine — "Subnotebooks" Issue
• Volume/Issue: Vol. 11, No. 18 — October 27, 1992
• Publisher: Ziff-Davis Publishing Co.
• Format: Perfect-bound softcover magazine, approx. 500 pages
• Language: English
• Condition: Used, with wear consistent with age. The page block has developed a noticeable wave/ripple, likely from long-term storage, and the paper edges are tanned and browned throughout. There is creasing and small tears at the top and bottom corners of the spine, and general shelf wear to the covers. The front cover has an old subscriber mailing label affixed to it. Interior pages on the pages we saw are intact and readable, with no loose or missing pages noted. There may be some notes or markings that we missed. We try to look through everything, but some items only have a handful of small notes that are easy to miss.

Please look closely at the photos. We do our best to show as many details as possible.

NOTE: Sometimes the color can be a little different in the photos than the actual item. We aren't professional photographers and sometimes our iphone just changes the colors for no reason and we can't figure out how to fix it.
