    That doesn't really explain WHY you buy it.

    As for the whole 'physical is better' story well I understand for the most part but I think a lot of that has to do with current display technologies, once we get to the point where digital displays can perform equally or better than print media then I think people will change their toon. The feel of the paper and all that jazz is really just a cultural/generational thing like how our parents or gran parents can't understand why we would want to text people instead of talking to them.

    *also lol at a digital once a month magizine, that's like sticking a brick to your cellphone just so it can feel more like it used to.

    Yeah also used to get this and PCF every month... after a while it was just NAG for money reasons.
    Then because of internet(well not so much, coz the mag is actually fun to read) and my laziness to read(more this one) I bailed on it... but wow I used to start at the start of the mag(yes including ed's note) till the very end of the mag... also including the lol spine notes and cd cover notes, always couldn't wawit the read the crap they wrote there... spine notes started to fall away sadly... atleast cd cover notes survived.

    I also agree with Xero, I hope they stick around for years to come...

    Apparently you missed the bit where I pointed out that everybody gets a turn on the roasting spit. But whatever, if you want to get all butthurt about it, I'm not going to bother trying to persuade you otherwise. You're obviously not the sort of person who can laugh at yourself, and therefore not really the kind of reader I have in mind when I write my column.

    For the record, though, I was a hardline PC gamer for most of my life, and I don't think any platform is objectively superior to any other. All platforms have their pros and cons, and more significantly, perhaps, you can play games on all of them. I always think that people being offended about perceived "superiority" issues are simply projecting their own biases onto what they read.

    Pretty much same as people above have said. Nag was/is more for the Games and PC format is more for the overclocker/hardware person. Anyone know of a good website for Hardware and overclocking articles? preferably a SA site (just being patriotic and it would be more SA consumer relavent).

    I subscribed to NAG for about 4 years so i have a few boxes full. one thing that made me sad was that every few months they would have a page saying if you subscribe now "you'll get something" and it made me bummed cos my subscription expired each year in the one month that there was no gift. and if you renewed the subscription i didn't get anything anyway. *I like free things besides the DVD*

    Check out Anandtech and TomsHardware both really good sites and if you want a more by the minute technology site try Arstechnica. Not sure what relevance their country of origin has apart from the prices.
