# Magazine Review: Computer Trader Magazine

In the three and a half years that Chet Lambert has been publishing the Computer Trader (now Computer Trader Magazine), it has gone from a single sheet for people wanting to buy, sell, or trade used equipment, to a 100-page magazine with glossy paper and a considerable amount of advertising. As soon as you look at it, it’s clear that CTM is not published by McGraw-Hill or Wayne Green. The cover design and interior layout is generally sloppy (even compared to T-S Horizons), But that’s really part of the magazine’s charm.
