RE: [newbie] Linux Format
Thanks for the links Mark. The one place I did manage to find that I could buy a subscription from the price was inflated 3 times what it costs in the UK. If it costs the equivilant of $23 in the UK, the same subscription costs $75 here. I guess that's not too bad really cuz they've got to import it and everything. -- Mark /* I never worry about the to-jams. * Once I've stuck my foot in my mouth * it's already too late...just make sure * you chew them thoroughly before swallowing! */ Registered Linux user #182496 * Pine 4.21 * On Tue, 10 Oct 2000 9:52am ,[EMAIL PROTECTED] spake...: You could try their web site and click on the subscribtions bit. www.linuxformat.co.uk www.pcplus.co.uk Mark Hillary From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Weaver Sent: Friday, October 06, 2000 5:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Linux Format I wonder...could a fella get that here in the states? -- Mark /* I never worry about the to-jams. * Once I've stuck my foot in my mouth * it's already too late...just make sure * you chew them thoroughly before swallowing! */ Registered Linux user #182496 * Pine 4.21 *

This is a LINUX newsgroup. Linux is a system built on friendship and understanding and such talk can only lead to division. This subject has a way of getting out of hand very quickly as many people, even non-nationals, have their own opinions and slant on the topic due to the fact that it covers more than just land ownership (religion, terrorism also being valid issues). Therefore what we say may upset many people, as being english / irish our views are rather inflenced and prejudiced by nationality. Send private e-mails to each other by all means if you want a political converstion but NOT via the linux newsgroup. Andrew

RE: [RE: [newbie] Linux Format]
Gack... I was off by half! I got confused and was thinking of Maxximum Linux when I quotes $7.95 (ok, ok, I *quoted* $795). Today I went over there to see what was in this month's Linux rags and they had Linux Forum. It was $13.95 (I suppose for consistency that should be $1395) It did come with a CD that included Omnis Studio Lite (db based app developer), Gnome 1.2 and a bunch of other stuff. The magazine seemed to have a lot of decent stuff in it.

Re: [newbie] Linux Format
I'd give it a 9 out of 10. I've used in on servers, laptops, and desktop client machines so I probably tested it more than they did. ; It didn't install w/ OpenSSH which annoys me, the GUI installer shares some bugs w/ non-compat video cards w/ others like RedHat, and the security options should be more selective in your choices. Otherwise awesome. :) *^*^*^* Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sungod robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you? -- Real Genius On Thu, 5 Oct 2000, Jay wrote: -- If anybody here reads Linux Format, the UK based Linux mag, then you already know this fact...Linux-Mandrake received a 10 out of 10 rating for 7.1.
