Console News Letters

In 1999, you could subscribe to a Linux Monthly News Feeds called Console Newsletter for free. Seems issue 11 was the last issue I got, not sure why. But for historical reasons, these are the Issues I received during that period and all contain interesting information.

These are all Text Files with a maximum line length of about 68 characters.
I went looking on the Wayback Machine, there were only 11 issues and there is no indication on why it ceased.
