| 1132579 | 2010-08-30 03:19:00 | it used to be good but since they've done those AV tests which are a pack of lies compared to actual "real world" testing by our resident tester (who may or may not have too much time on his hands :D) Wainutech. gotta find that thread he made about that:D. theres too much advertising rubbish in it now. until it improves(likely?) i'm gonna give it a miss. |

| 1132580 | 2010-08-30 07:21:00 | I just got the new Mag today, it should be renamed MacWorld or NortonWorld. I thought its meant to be about PC's, am i wrong? It has 2 articles about iPhoney 4 and the i(won't go)Mac. |

It has 2 articles about iPhoney 4 and the i(won't go)Mac. The "PC" could stand for a number of things. Probably originally stood for "Personal Computer" (that's so 1980's!!!) In today's context, it's probably "Personal Computing" which covers desktops, laptops, tablets, smartphones and all the software and peripherals you can plug into them.... |

| 1132583 | 2010-08-30 09:32:00 | It arrived at lunch time and must have been a good one because it took me ten minutes to read, mostly the cpu test section | Twelvevolts (5457) | ||
| 1132584 | 2010-08-30 20:58:00 | Yes their reviews are very superficial. Especially on printers, its almost as if they just print the brochure, without trying one. And their biased reviews on anti virus programs ! I wonder how much longer they can go on, when you can get it all on here ! I used to buy it every month, but I stopped a few years ago. |

| 1132586 | 2010-08-30 23:48:00 | I subscribed for years to the PCWorld mag but quit a couple of months back :( Too much American hard sell BS for my liking. Also too much game stuff which is not my scene :) |
