I just received my last copy of PC Magazine. I had no idea this was coming. A little note came with the magazine saying this would be the last printed issue. I’m a bit sad, as I’ve subscribed to PC Magazine for about 20 years or so. It is the one magazine that I read cover to cover and I have learned so much from this magazine. PC Magazine is not going away, the owners have decided to go completely digital.
I suppose this should not come as a surprise for a tech magazine to go digital, since digital will be the future for magazines and newspapers, and eventually books as well. From what I’ve read on-line, the company is making most of it’s money with on-line revenue and will save money by dropping the print version. And of course, this is obviously a good decision for the environment.
But I will miss the printed issue. I sit in front of a computer too many hours a day already and I enjoy reading my magazines in bed. I guess I will eventually have to get a digital reader like Amazon’s Kindle
