[newbie] Re: Linux Format (was OpenOffice.org 1.0)

 Linux Format shows up in the US chain bookstores (Borders, etc) about two
 months later. They must use the old raft from Kon Tiki or something. That's
 OK, though -- I tend to run a little late. too.

Our local Borders Books receives the CD version Linux Format on the 15th/16th 
of the month following publication but only stocks 4 copies of each issue. It 
takes us an hour to get to Borders Books so we decided it was more energy 
efficient and less costly to just subscribe. So instead of US$13.95 per CD 
issue, we are now getting the DVD version for US$8.75 per issue. Our issues 
arrive during the first week of the publication date. Such a deal grin.

We've enjoyed, used and promoted Linux Format magazine to the extent that our 
local library has just subscribed!

Great magazine, fantastic DVD ... not an ad ... just a satisfied customer.

Julie:
Let's see now -- I save better than $5.00 an issue, and it gets here sooner. 
Excellent idea. Thanks.
