Good questions, Tod.  Let me see... ah!  Here's my notes...

PCM Magazine was one of the first Model 100 magazines, along with Portable 100
and Truly Portable, supporting Model 100 computing from 1983.  PCM was strictly
Model 100 oriented when it started in July 1983.  For many years it followed
Model T computing, covering the 102 and 200, along with the 100.

Little by little, as the Tandy marketed MS-DOS computers emerged, PCM fazed out
its Model T support with the April 1990 issue--the last issue in a row having
some articel about Model T computing.  However, in both the February and August
1991 issues you will find a one Model 100 article but those are the only
exceptions.

Frankly, PCM was "always" a supperior Model T supporting magazine.  They are
the only magazine in history to publish bar code listings.  Furthermore, every
issue gave Model T owners gobs of programming and information.  PCM in it's hay
day was the best.  But alas, for economic reasons, they can no longer afford to
support the humble Model T market (sigh!).

To your questions: Can you make copies of the Club 100 Second Decade catalog to
give to friends?  The answer is... well... ahmmm... YEAH!  GO FOR IT!  ...and
thanks.  -Rick-
