MB - A long term PC-related, sampled data trend - May 1995 - 782 Aug 1995 - 802 Nov 1995 - 802 Mar 1997 - 894 Aug 1998 - 602 Jan 1999 - 574 Feb 1999 - 534 Apr 1999 - 472 May 1999 - 458 These are the number of pages in the monthly issue of Computer Shopper, a large format, advertising-heavy magazine from ZD, available at most news-stands.
