PC MagazineZiff Davis's PC Magazine to Abandon Print for OnlineAuthored by Mark Hefflinger on November 19, 2008 - 2:45pm.
New York - Publisher Ziff Davis Media announced on Wednesday that its 27-year-old flagship title, PC Magazine, will go all digital next year. The final issue of the print version, which earlier this year went from a bi-weekly to monthly format, will be published in January 2009. The company said the PCMag Digital Network, with over 7 million unique monthly visitors, now reaches in excess of 10 times the circulation of the print publication. The Beautiful Impending Doom of My Windows Vista MonsterAuthored by Scott Goldberg on January 18, 2007 - 8:19am.
Readying myself for Windows Vista over the last few weeks has felt like the coming of a newborn: I’ve done loads of research, read the opinions of those who’ve tried it, and even decided a new computer was necessary to carry the enormous burden Vista will bring. The decision was made no easier by PC Magazine’s extensive coverage, which included as many reasons to invest in Vista as reasons not to. It turns out I’m a sucker for strong language, however, because John Clyman’s words offered the final tipping point: “If you're buying a new consumer PC this spring, it probably makes sense to get Vista. Soon, there won't be much of a choice; according to Microsoft's support life cycle, retail PC buyers will have only a year after Vista's release to buy Windows XP.” Yachtzee! Carrying the burden of a 5-year-old laptop on my desk meant that to have this bundle of joy, I would need to move from my studio bachelor pad to an overly expensive 2-bedroom suburban palace.
