I don't. I had to drive out 150kg of printed amiga and pc magazines to local recycling center, because they didn't want to take it and I got less than I spent on fuel. Noboty wanted to buy it and it was too hard to just burn it, because nice glossy paper with special anti-flammable additives burns rather awfully. Re-reading it is almost pointless, maybe for nostalgia about how AGP will be THE BEST in graphics soon.

What you miss is quality, not printed magazines.

No, I didn't even try. I gave them to a company which gave them second life as recycled paper. I'm still missing my amiga, that was a fine piece of hardware and started my programming career, essentially made me who I am.
