WTF is going on with the dead guy in the monitor? Was that designed by David Lynch?

I think his back end framework failed when she decided to get her bootstrap on.

Disappointed to find he'd brought a 3.5" floppy?

The 1995 socially awkward tournament of champions was one to remember.

I have so many follow up questions about most of the covers

I was curious as to what the OP was googling to find that, but it seems he is not alone....

The price of becoming a zillionaire... You have to wonder if it was worth it.

I flicked through all those covers looking at the software etc on them, and then realised the point was the more ornamental features...

Is that geeky enough?

And computers/programming are still dull however you you try and 'sex it up'
How do they try and sell it as a career now? Leather seats in the mid range company car and a free iPhone? Or is it a team building monthly meal out at Hooters as recompense for working in a windowless office on a half built technology park in Slough?

I'm not sure that's a perfect equivalent NW - the target market for that is somewhat different to the target market of those Yugo mags.

1980s computer programmers were, presumably, the first folk to discover the existence of pron on the internet. Surely, an early-adopting tugmonkeyis an early-adopting tugmonkey ?

I think it's the nice offices and relaxed atmosphere most new big tech have that attracts them, personally my fantastic windowed office looking over a nice harbour and down the river negates any hooters trips that and the flexibility ๐Ÿ™‚

Watching that was almost as uncomfortable as watching Risky Business with my parents when I was 14.

Next time I'm over in India or China I'll find out and report back.

Stuff haven't had girlie covers since 2014, they started doing two covers (one with a model on the front, the other one showcasing tech) in the months leading up to the change and found the non-model one sold better, unsurprisingly.

It turns out to have been the photographer's daughter, and they had to sneak out to the golf course after it closed for the day and hurry up to take the picture, as it was against the etiquette at the club to play golf in a bikini... While there were no more pictures inside the magazine, at least they had a special on Links which was the reason for the cover.
