The Digital Group Advertisements &
Magazine Articles
The Digital Group had some very eye pleasing advertisements which ran
in a variety of magazines. All but one of the scans below are from the pages
of Byte Magazine. Since Byte was the leading computer magazine of the time, they were
usually the first to get the new ad copy--I have not verified this in every
case, but it is a reasonable assumption. In short, it is possible these ads might have
run somewhere else first. The date shown below each is the
earliest date that the ad appeared, but not every scan is from that
particular issue.
Their were only three ads I am aware
of (again, not an exhaustive search on my part) that did not run in the
pages of Byte, and only one is included below. This one is from Popular
Electronics. PE also ran a variation of this same ad, but with the cutout
on the right side of the page--I couldn't find my tattered copy, February
of 1977 if I recall. The third was in color, text from "Meet The
Digital Group" (PE, March 1977) with color photo like the one that
ran in Byte, January of 1978. I know I have it somewhere...
I have also included several articles written by the DG folks and one
article written specifically about about DG. Since
these were written as part of an advertising strategy (except for one) , they are
included here.
If I run across an
ad that differs notably from this collection, I will scan it and add it
later--but for now, this is it! :) --Enjoy.
