Advantages: Built on solid history

Disadvantages: Ads, not up there witht the best

I do know that computer mags tend to be subsidised by their marketing and advertising, but when over half the thickness is ads well I tend to think it has gone a little far. My poor postman was getting terrible backache once a month due to my subscription. They have started to get better over the past three or four months, but their editorials have also started to get quuite a bit thinner, is this the slippery slope to non-publication? With such a vast competition field is there really room for everyone. I do like the magazine (it was my first PC subscription)but I do not feel they have kept up well with all the others. Quite often I have been left floudering due to the language they have used, and I have been around computers for the past seven years. Maybe they will buck up and do well, then again maybe not.
