CentraLUG report - meeting of July 3rd

[Bill Sconce]

A light turnout (three of us!), but a highly productive evening.

As promised we cross-reviewed the magazines the attendees use
the most.  There was no formal poll, but from memory:

  o Linux Format (expensive, but more than one of us has
    installed a product for the first evaluation from the
    CD or DVD included with the magazine).  It appears, BTW,
    that it may be MORE expensive to subscribe than to pick
    up one copy at a time at Borders.

  o Linux Journal (especially popular: the "Beachead" column,
    by a well-known local!  His initials are "md"...)

  o Linux Magazine

  o Info World, for John Udell's columns -- and for a price
    at the other end of the scale
