i have always personally considered Mondo pretty lame, all though
i have only seen a couple issues, though. I just picked up the June
issue of "Wired" in the Airport, and think it has a good chance at
success. Phrack, an info-zine in .txt form, is one of my favorites,
as is 2600. I have never heard of "Fringware" before.

I read Phrack and 2600 occasionally. They are hacker/phone phreak
publications, discussing the inner workings of phone systems and
computer systems.

Hmm I can't believe anyone could be here and _not_ read at least one of those
zines... Mondo 2K has nice DTP, but pretty pics do not make a good read...
WiRED in the otherhand is an amazing experience, I'd recommend seeking it out
very much, if at least for one issue. Phrack is nice, but too localised -
if you're not in the scene area then most of it is irrelevant.
2600 is a zine I'd love to get myhands on.... help anyone? (UK guy here)
But more than anything I want the FringeWAre address

Fringeware is the most interesting grass roots cyber zine IMHO.
The production isn't 1.8th as good as Wired but the content is decent.
Ofcourse I'm biased because there is ab=n ad for a hypercard stack I
was involved in in issue # 2.

I remember hearing there was a Fringe Ware web site where you
could look at their products. Address anyone?

Phrack is great! It has really developed over time into a good
hacking/phreaking magazine. If you haven't read it, get it. It can really
come in handy, sometimes.

I read somewhere that one of the above magazines told how to make free
long-distance phone calls from a payphone. Did anyone see this article?
I am very interested....

Mondo2k makes interesting reading occasionally. There spot on pirate
radio and encryption was great. Problem is I think they are trying
to look legitamate..while others such as 2600 dunt really care.

re # 16 Are you involved with Fringeware Brenner??? If so look for
a full page ad for the Xen Distractionsim hypercard stack in issue # 3 (or
it might be # 2), I did the graphic design and publicity for said stack,
which is now alas defunct due to legal difficulties.

I am unthrilled with Fringeware, but perhaps I should give it another
try. In the issue I read, they not only altered a poem by our own
beloved Humdog, but they consistently spelled "guy" "gy", which I found
incredibly irritating. Even in articles that were written by guest
writers -- must've used a search and replace because I'm sure that at
least one of the writers would never have spelled it that way.

They have p.c. grammer nazis at Fringeware, tsk, tsk, if they would
only
free their minds their asses would follow.
