Hello everyone, As the is a nation wide listing, I wondered if my experience was replicated in the rest of the country. The plethora of "buy new cool Vista magazines" seems to elbowing the three Linux magazines out of existence in Wolverhampton and Bridgnorth. My main concern is that my favourite magazine "Linux User and Developer", to which I have subscribed for a couple of years, seems to have gone very ominously silent: no replies to emails, no replies to telephone messages. The web site is still functioning although cobwebs seem to be gathering on it. Is it me that they don't like, or have they gone belly down?? -- Regard, Howard Supporting Open Source Software. http://www.fsf.org/ And Open Standards http://www.oasis-open.org/who/ I have had a similar experience. Being new to Ubuntu I thought I would buy a Linux magazine or two. I couldn't find a trace of any Linux magazine in central Edinburgh. I know I have seen a couple on newsstands in the past. Incidentally, I noticed that amazon.co.uk has many books about Ubuntu and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good beginner's title.
