2 out of 5 stars Nice Magazine - Bad Advertisements   September 6, 2008
I haven't renewed my PC Mag subscription due to the horrible advertisements. Most of the tech/computer magazines I subscribe to have related advertising, with the occasional ad for something quirky. However, PC Mag has sold it's soul in terms of the ads you'll see in it's publication. The most offensive of these is a hard stock center ad for American Spirits Tobacco products. It is glued into the binding and makes removing it or page flipping very difficult. Over the course of the year I saw more and more unrelated and tobacco ads. PC World gets my money now.


1 out of 5 stars Too biased against Windows products   July 14, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

PC Magazine used to be a venerable publication covering PC issues, but it's now a thinly published monthly magazine featuring tons of pro-Apple and anti-Windows articles and "readers' letters." Every issue tells you to buy Apple products and trashes anything related to Windows. There're also very few in-depth reviews -- you're expected to visit their website for anything interesting. As a reader since the late 80s I'm very, very disappointed and disgusted.


1 out of 5 stars Digital PCMagazine subscription. Bad service   March 19, 2008
 3 out of 8 found this review helpful

Contained: poor
System of reading: only discreet because it is impossible to save and to easily export an article
Assistance: very bad. After having seen the first number I was dissatisfied and I wanted to recede. I have tried to connect me to the service of assistance but it was not possible. I have sent therefore more than an email to the assistance and they have never answered



4 out of 5 stars Eh.   March 14, 2008
Took two months to receive my first issue, way too long in my opinion.

PC Mag is MUCH better than PC World as far as content. Give new fresh useful items and fulfills the role and update magazine should.



1 out of 5 stars Nearly useless these days   January 26, 2008

Irrelevant information, boring articles, and lousy product reviews. In its attempt to cover all areas that might interest its readers, it has became something useless to all.
