Yes you're the only one... The reason the issue is worth alot is not because it is IDM related, but because TDR did some pioneering work in fonts. Most of the people that want this magazine are interested in design, not the music. Because there is a cross-section of DR fans on this list as well, it seems like the ideal place to auction it off. Also, keep in mind that Dave, who is auctioning the item, has been helping listmembers for years get cool stuff for cheap with EAR/Rational. If someone's willing to pay for the magazine to help out Dave, I for one, am all for it. -Mike
