Bummer, so the hopes of Barnes & Noble selling them has been delayed to a future point in time?

I'm sorry, I guess I wasn't clear or you misunderstood. We're still exactly on track with Barnes and Noble's account managers. The process itself takes 3-4 months, which hasn't passed yet because we haven't printed an issue to show them yet. It's non-issue.

Would it be helpful for me to research some non-chain options in the Cleveland market? I don't know what the options are, but I could try to look into it if you like.

Thank you, but not at this time no.

Also, would you mind confirming I should e-mail [email protected] about increasing my order size?

Indeed, that is the correct email address, or you could speak with Adam Harding, the customer accounts manager directly at [email protected]

He'll get you squared away.

Cheers

I want to see which one gets released first, the magazine or Diablo III.

Which ever one comes first will be my next obsession in life for sure!

Matthew (or anyone else at Bitcoin Magazine), I purchased one issue not realizing that 12 issues meant 12 months... haha

Also, now I see that there are 3, 6 & 12 Issues (I'm assuming months) options.

How can I upgrade my order to be 3 issues so that I get the "Surprise Gift Included?" Do I need to e-mail someone, perhaps [email protected]?

I didn't really want to pre-order many of the first issue, b/c I assume that it will be a good thing for me to buy more copies at my local Barnes & Noble.

I plan to go buy one and read it at the place and potentially donate it to the nearest dentist's office or something. I want to help spread them that way, but my wife only let's me put so much money into promoting bitcoins, b/c she wonders what I get out of it... hehe It's an awesome hobby!

Thanks for the support. Really though, no one should be expecting the first, second or even third issue to be in book stores. Publishing agreements with chains like that take months to finalize.

Just say the word and I'll add it to my "to-do" list.

Thanks Matthew!

I'd like frogger on a 5.25" floppy, thank you very much. Wink

Will you settle for oregon trail for the Apple I?

Does it come with the Apple I?

An Apple II should suffice.

Will you include a copy of Half-Life Episode 3 or Duke Nukem Forever with every issue?

For you I will include Duke Nukem 1, DOS shareware version on two separate 3.25" floppies.

Thank you so much for the details

I had noticed about http://bitcoinmagazine.co.uk/ , but since there was no recent update either on that board, I'm happily happy by your kind answers.

Wish you all the best !

Excellent post..

This pretty much sums up why there has been an epic delay.

Matthew is building a machine and by the looks of it he's almost finished.

Great for Bitcoin bad for Matthew haters.

Awesome job Matthew, we can't wait to see the first issue!
