MaxPC
Not so max anymore, but still worth the price (I get it without the CD as I can download any demos or utilities they discuss).<

>If you just have to read about PC gear, this is it. The new forums at the mag website are weak and loaded with newbs, wannabes and politically correct mods. Check Delphi forums for the ORIGINAL MaxPC foum, The Commport.

Great Geek Magazine.
If you are *really* into computers (especially hardware) then this mag is for you. Oh it does cover software as well (especially games) but this is a mag for those into the gear.<

>Much of it is aimed at the DIY and gamer crowd, but for those who aren't all that into that (like me), it's still a good reference with a lot of useful information and reviews.<
><
>The only thing I don't think much of is the monthly CD. Much of the software is somewhat dated by the time you get it and most if not all if it is available for download on the Internet (and you usually get newer versions).<
><
>If you're really into games, then the CD might be a good choice thanks to the game demos (which can be sizable downloads) but as far as the other stuff is concerned, it's mostly worthless.<
><
>Save yourself the expense and get the subscription without the CD (which Amazon doesn't seem to offer - but it does exist). Even if you are into games you might find that only a few of what they put on the CDs are of interest and your cost will still be lower by just downloading it.<

Great content
Lots of practical stuff, good content, though sometimes too focused on the (expensive) high end.
