MacHome Magazine Dies?
When July copy did not arrive I called customer 800# with no answer. Publisher has not replied to email. Following links are not promising.

Aren't computer publishing pages in general shrinking all over?
Internet's taking over. The Buggles should write a new song...

recently, i've found myself buying more magazines and trying to sit down and actually READ them through, and, given the time, it's very nice. large high-res pictures and text, can read it anywhere (a magazine is still lighter than any laptop i can bring into the living room), and if i spill coffee on it, it's only a few bucks to replace.
the key is that the mag has to offer something more than just sound bites. the web is the realm of sound bites, and a two paragraph snippet about a product is wasted on printed media. one mag i enjoy thoroughly is layers magazine. yes, it has its snippets, but the production quality is top notch (it's the napp/photoshop guys, so you expect pretty high standards), and they offer a whackload of across-the-board tutorials which, let's be honest, are not easy to follow on a computer screen. their interviews are keenly written, and many of their writers are experts in the field. you've just got to be more than a news-snippet-and-review mag if you are going to make it these days. macworld has inertia on its side, and yes, they actually do have some good articles as well. (we'll ignore the horrible, HORRIBLE redesign they did several years back. did that even last a year?)
