CPU Magazine?

[cpals]

I've been seeing a few of those "Computer Power User" magazine banners up above and was wondering if anyone has subscribed to it yet? How are the articles and what do they talk about? The website isn't exactly overflowing with information.

Also, when you go to subscribe it forwards to SmartComputing... are these the same magazine, just different titles?

...confused....

What banners?

You wouldn't be asking this if you were a subscriber.

Huh? I know that... which is why I AM asking. I want to know if it's worth the money to buy a subscription.

Here's the link if you haven't seen the banners...

For me it's worth it. If you want the speed. I saved alot of money in fs/ft to make up up for it.

I think he's talking about a subscription to the magazine

Yes, a magazine subscription. There is a banner in rotation at top... which you won't see if you are a AT subscriber.

The magazine supposedly has articles by Anand, Sharky, and some others... I'm just curious as to what the magazine actually is and what the articles are about.

This isn't a thread for senseless trolling about how you are infinitely better than those who don't subscribe, he was asking about a magazine, not the benefits of subscribing to the forums.

Its pretty good. Very informative and they seem to know what they're talking about. I prefer MaxPC's witticism however. CPU seems to be very dry.

Worth the $30/year? I could use another magazine to read info about... and yeah, I love MaximumPC. Great mag.

Its a pretty good magazine. Much more technical then PC World or PC Power, and without the sex of Maximum PC. There should be copies at your local newsstand.

Yeah, I bought an issue the other day to have something to read at lunch. If it had boobies, it'd be perfect.
