I knew the son of the editor of BYTE back in the early 90s going to college in New Hampshire. Most people probably don't realize that BYTE was headquartered in a tiny NH town about as far from Silicon Valley - both physically and culturally - as you can get. Though it was close to the Boston area - where a lot of computing happened in the early days before mostly moving to California - Peterborough is a quaint New England town that may not have had a stop light back then. When I moved to NH in the late 80s, the public schools were still all using Apple IIs from a decade earlier. The idea that a major tech magazine was being written there pre-internet still makes me shake my head in wonder.
