I used to subscribe to PC PRO each month, but found that I simply couldn't find the time to sit down and read it.

These days all I subscribe to is The Register and get a daily email of the latest news and goings on in the world of IT.

I find that this way I can see whats new,and if something grabs my attention I can look into it further.

Best of all it's FREE to subscribe.

 

Aye industry mags aint what they used to be, most the stuff in them I read months prior on /. or similar

read slashdot
read the register if you must
zdnet
that kind of stuff

way more informative

 

Computing and Computer Weekly are "free to the trade"

 

as is IT Week if i recall correctly (atleast i still seem to get a copy every monday, lol)

 

Subscribe to PCPro myself, have done for a few years, and have to thank it for much of my IT knowledge that isn't self-taught.
Don't always find time to read it anymore like simon.

I do check the register quite a lot, although I tend to find myself in the Odds & Sods section more and more often.

Newsnow.co.uk's IT section can be good for a quick skim.

 

PC Pro is my favourite "pay for" mag too, I also get computing, computer weekly and server management. There used to be another one called IT week, dunno if it's still going.

 

I only buy PC Advisor...in the past I bought this along with PCW (Personal Computer World) which was the first mag I bought that got me into PCs...about 8 years ago. now I just read PC Advisor...its really good. has all the stuff I want to read about and even gives top ten charts about each component or peripheral...and talks about some of the latest gadgets...always buy it every month without fail...dont know where I would be without it...

 

CU Amiga - now that was a great mag (though don't think you can get it anymore )

 

It is and not worth the bother! IMHO
