Digital Review was a trade magazine focusing on the market created by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), at the time the second largest computer company; IBM was number one.
History They were published independently from October 1983 thru August 1992 by Ziff-Davis. At that point, they were acquired and merged with Digital News; the new title was Digital News & Review. The Boston Globe had described the situation between the prior publication owners as "The war among the Digitals: Bitter competition reflects growing rivalry between Ziff, McGovern empires." The combined Digital News & Review periodical was printed from 1992 to 1996 by Reed Business Information. That title ceased publishing "due to the lack of an advertising base."By then DEC had been acquired by Compaq, and the latter's focus was on PCs.
