Thanks great.
I thought because of the pcf.co.za it's still the old cover so it didn't launched yet.

It was quite a coincidence, I bought the mag today (which I haven't done for about 5 years!) and I was quite pleasantly surprised to see our quotes... :D

its a gud mag for ppl who dont have internet , most of the content from ther could be found on the net.

it is a bit thin for R42.

i sometimes feel the content is few months old, just my 2 cents.

In all the years of buying PCF, the Special Edition 2008/130 was the first one I got with a faulty cover disk.

Just to make sure my CD/DVD drive wasn't faulty, I tried previous PCF disks...no problem. I then tried the new PCF disk in another machine...same read errors.

Conviced that the disk was faulty, I returned it to CNA and they replaced it.

Got home, slid in the disk and guess what? Same read error. :(

My disc took long to read but worked in the end, almost like it was severely defragmented :?
