A little history for the digital natives among us.
I heard on TWIT today that Byte was been revived. Gina Smith in describing Byte had to make sure that listeners knew the spelling.
So, here is a little question for you. At the time that Byte was on my magazine list I also received a magazine covering the Apple computer of the day. The name of the magazine might appear related in a pun kind of way to Byte. There was a kind of tech joke attached. The competition for Apple of that day made use of a 16 bit CPU (maybe 8088). The Apple used a 8 bit CPU (6502 if I remember). The name of the Apple mag, a half a byte, was ?????
I could not get anyone to come up with an answer on Google + . Half a byte is a Nibble.
