CPU mag

[CHE]

Anyway, I was out this morning getting the Sunday paper (*cough*...twelve-pack...*cough*) when I saw a magazine on the stand entitled CPU - Computer Power Users. It had columns written by Anand, Sharkey whatshisface, and Kyle Bennet. $7 USD !!! <BR><BR>Now why TF would I spend $7 on a magazine with the same crap I get on the web for free? Any thoughts?<BR><BR>$7 my ass, that is just ridiculous... They should pay me $7 per article if they want me to read them.

Yes and I think 20/20 should investigate...the people need to be informed...<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif"border=0>

Haha, well that mag is something you can bring to the bath room! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif"border=0><BR><BR>Hmm... I never heard Anand or Kyle (you know Kyle would...) boasting they write for a acutal pulication, I wonder if they even know about it!<BR><BR>

[CHE]

I didn't even open the magazine. It just said on the cover that it had columns written by those people.<BR><BR>Here:<BR><BR><img src="http://206.245.164.154/covers/00010053392001.jpg"><BR><BR>I did a quick google search. I think you can make out the first three columnist names.<BR><BR>Edit: Ack!!! No HTML? Well then, resize yourself...

[Colin]

Wow! That's quite interesting to say the least... I really do wonder if they know their articles are in that. <BR><BR>Never heard of CPU here in Canada myself, is that a new magazine down there in the US?<BR>

[CHE]

I have no idea. Just because I found it on the shelf does not mean it's the next National Geographic. I've never heard of it before, and we have a lot of very obscure magazines in the US. Maybe somebody else has more input.

[CHE]

Maybe not.

Well, I looked them up, it does look legit... Unfortunately <a target=new href="http://www.computerpoweruser.com/">this</a> magazine is not sold here in Canada... =(<BR><BR>Still, I thought they would have a better web site!

[CHE]

Yikes!!!<BR><BR>Thanks for the linky, Colon, that was craptacular!!! Christ, they should've had me do their website!

[Colin]

Haha... Yeah that link was hilarious eh? Geez, with all that "writing talent" I'd expect them to draw enough of an audience to have a better site! =)<BR>

[Colin]

Oh btw CHE, I found that magzine in a local coffee shop here in Toronto...<BR><BR>It is legit. However the magzine is rather bland, the info is quite old! =(
