I mostly remember John writing in Boardwatch magazine, and then later in PC Mag. It’s probably fair to say that there was a time when I mostly bought PC Mag on the news stand just to read him. I remember buying a license for iRider, that tab based browser based on IE, when he recommended it. I was sad when he seemingly ceased being informative and went full on into “crank” territory.
