Wow - where to begin.... (that is Cat for "this is going to be long")

Well NAB's Soap Box was positive and interesting - I generally don't read the Editor's comment :wink: He has me looking forward to the next issue and extra disk - and actually considering trying WOW.

Love the Download section - and that I was quoted, although my comment was embarrassing, was really cool.

Love what Michael did with the interview on AMD - love all the square brackets. Without which I probably would have been completely lost and / or bored.

Scanned Slam in the Ram - but not into memory at the moment (but will read it sometime).

My son loved the article about the new Tomb Raider - I am not so into what "stars" think - so have not read it yet.

Enjoyed the notebook reviews and the one on Blackops. Found it strange that it was rated "Not that great" - sounded great to me (the n00b).

The spy sunglasses are cool - but think a thinner wire would be better :P and you need a way to hide the camcorder too :lol:

I lolled at the Shuttle Prima XPC SX48P2E review - and the Ed's comment.

After the review on System Mechanic - I am embarrassed by all the sludge in my tubes :lol: :lol: :lol:

Love the photo in Sound Bytes. We still have machines with some of the first SBPro cards in - and they still work well.

Enjoyed the walk through history (although, be it recent).

Stunning photo in Tech Porn :lol: Had my mouth watering.

Enjoyed reality printer - though I had to reread some sections as my brain refused to grasp certain concepts.

@DJV - I just wish I had the courage to mod my EEE. Sadly I don't - so will never know the joy of touching :wink:

As always - enjoyed the game reviews (but also read NAG :twisted: ) Must try Devil May Cry.

The article on Physics in games was really interesting - one of the reasons I bought Force Unleashed on PS3.

LOVED the BSOD - got many but never really understood them. Knew they were inevitable - but would just "utter an expletive" and reboot :twisted:

Well that is enough I think :lol: Hope that helps :twisted:

I like the new size, Paper is ok . More Content wasgreat. But there are still contradictory pieces of info (like the review on the projector).

Sapphire 4870 Toxic 1GB: Coolermaster HAF : BlackIce360 Rad : Apogee GT : DTek-Customs Rez.

I'm a PCF subscriber and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with the new layout and content! I know you've called it a "bumper edition", but I would like to have them all like that! It is now a truly meaty mag and even more worth the wait!

Well done!!!

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. Since November is now hitting shelves I am locking this bad guy.
What you see written above is my opinion and not that of the peeps that put food on my plate.
