- In defense of AC, the magazine has been holding steady at 48 pages for a
- while now. While we all would like a larger magazine that doesn't take
- 10 minutes to read, having ANY US magazine right now is important for the
- Amiga community. Speculating about AC's demise only brings about unwarranted
- cancellation of subscriptions (and then they probably WOULD go under). By
- the way, in the second to last issue, they had some stats in a small corner
- of the magazine about circulation. I think it was around 26,000 issues sold
- per month. Not bad for a computer with practically a ZERO percent market
- share in the US. Let's all try to get it up to AmigaWorld's former average
- of around 100,000 per month! :)
