Billiumss Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I have been getting the "Computer Shopper" magazine for many years, back to the days when it was so big and thick that you could almost kill someone with it. lol The past 2 years I haven't been that impressed with the magazine, it just keeps getting smaller and smaller and more and more ads. I like the format and the way it is written but it just seems like they don't care as much as they did 2-3 years ago. My subscription is about up and I am in the market to get a new computer magazine that has great tech articles, good reviews, maybe a little humor, not worded for the beginner and I'm not looking for a gamer mag either. What do you guys suggest? Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morabu Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 if a new magazine is a must instead of da intraweb i quite like CPU (Computer Power User) i believe it will fit your requirements as mentioned above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally Pat Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Computer Shopper is the worst magazine ever created. Ever...........ever. Just use Digg.com. It is the best way to get computer news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotCarl Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 2600 I use to read this mag. as much for it's entertainment purpose than the information inside. I dont even know if it's still around. I'm not a geek, i swear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billiumss Posted January 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I know with a little searching on the web you can find good tech info, which I do a lot of, but I still like going through a magazine once in a while. I know PC World has been around for sometime, what do you guys think about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 PC World is boring. They are the wine tasters of the computer world. The write about things that no one wants to read about, and they seem to be stuck in 1998 in Styling. To be honest with you, there may not be any good computer magazines left. The ones I read now are gaming ones, like Games for Windows. 2600 is a good magazine if you are a hacker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 2600 Is awesome if thats your area. PC MAG or PC WORLD are ok. But I feel PC mags is a oxymoron since once you get the "NEWS" shits already outdated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
