| 268866 | 2004-09-03 12:02:00 | Insufficient. I like to know methodology used in testing, the benchmarks utilised, the brands used in testing, What new products are being reviewed that may be of interest to me. Articles that are relevant to my needs. As I said previously I like to make informed choices. A quick scan through a mag allows you to do this. I have often bought mags purely on the basis of one relevant and comprehensive article. |

| 268867 | 2004-09-03 12:07:00 | I would agree with that,my purchase is dictated by a single article,if i flip through and nothing grabs my attention then i don't bother. | metla (154) | ||
| 268868 | 2004-09-03 12:39:00 | Would you buy a car if it came shrink-wraped. You could read the cars sepc's on a card on the outside of the car, but you cant look inside unless you buy it. I am the buggar that rips open shrink-wrap to have a look inside, then if I dont like I leave it there. Others probally come after me and say "cool someone ripped one for me to browse". |
