Hmm, reminds me to dig up the old Wired issues I must have somewhere. I remember buying them regularly in the nineties. I bought Wired mainly for the interviews with wacko visionaries and the outrageous typesetting. I also remember vividly the expensive advertisements: complete 3d pyramids popping up when you turned the page, and once (my personal favorite) an ad with that Frenchmen scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, which included a scratch-and-sniff sticker that read: "scratch here and I will fart in your general direction". Try to resist an ad like that...
