NAG Maybe Upgrading To 9GB DVD

Post by riaandp »

I have an suggestion.
PS!! Don`t lock this thread please, it is about PCFormat.
NAG has put an survey out in their latest mag about maybe upgrade the DVD from 4.7 to 9GB for R5 more.
Can`t PCFormat also do this.
Hell i`ll pay like R5 more for a bigger DVD anytime.
Put a poll on so that we can vote.
You got my vote...

:lol: Yip, we'd heard that story before!
Would be nice having a larger DVD, but what will they put on it? There are only so many demos that are released every month... Decent ones, that is.

I pay R150 for the UK PCF and R100 for the UK CustomPC. I don't buy any SA mags though, except the new SA distro of CustomPC.

I unfortunately can`t afford it.
We get them here in CNA, but as i said cannot afford.
I am thinking of subscribing to SA CustomPC.
