Here is another tech-themed
comic from a 1973 issue of Popular Electronics magazine. There are
usually two or more per edition, but not this time. It took looking
a second time to figure out what the guy in the comic was referring to - pretty
funny after I "got it." There is a hyperlinked list at the bottom of the page
for the hundreds of comics I've posted over the years. It's a shame that comics rarely
appear in contemporary technical magazines.

some).
