Unfortunately my early issues of Byte are about 10,000 miles
away, couldn't afford to move them (as it was the air freight
to Hong Kong was a killer, but did manage to bring a SUN
and SGI with me, the PDP11s were too heavy).

I stand corrected on this, sorry.

His involvement must have been very short lived and quickly forgotten.
By the time I got involved (second or third year, I don't
quite remember, I think it was 1977), Byte was run by a single (as
in unmarried) guy (again I forget the name and have no way of looking
it up). If I remember correctly he did end up marrying someone
involved with the magazine, but that was quite a few years later.

As I said, he was no relation of mine.
