Hi
I would like to buy subscription to a computer magazine for my husband - not sure which one is the best - any recommendations?

thanks
 
PCW (Personal Computer World) is one of the better 'middle of the road' ones.
 
I enjoy PC Advisor as it has a pretty good reviews section and a fairly comprehensive tips and solutions section. As with any magazine today, most of the information they contain is available on the web for free...
 
PC Live for the Irish slant on new developments.

ComputerActive has no CD cluttered with stuff you can find online anyway and costs about a third of the price as a result.

If you can find out what aspect of the topic your husband is interested in it may help your choice as there are many specialised mags e.g. those dealing with website creation, movies, equipment reviews, particular products, etc. Try "leaving" him in the mag section of a shop while you unobtrusively see which ones he's more engrossed in. If you're still unsure you'll be safer with the "general" mags, such as most listed so far.
