# The Future of QZX

The letter from KQ2F, printed on the previous page, sums up the feelings and actions of many QZX readers. As Bob mentions, he has been a QZX reader from the start. Most of our readers have been with us for four or more years, and many of them have bought computers with other operating systems. And, like Bob, a few each month are not renewing because of a desire to concentrate on fewer activities or for other reasons. Аs а result the number of readers is going down and the cost per reader is going up.
