The CD Rocks. Thanks for Fedora

iTunes setup is corrupt.





But the Mag still sucks. Its become more of a corporate mag rather than for people like us.
Every other months these MFD's r reviewed , projectors and what not !

Can't point out what exactly was different from the previous issues, but methinx the balance was perfect this time. In fact it's after a long time that I felt like finishing the mag off in one go :D ! So 8/10 for that plus a gr8 DVD (though I was xpecting the full version of BLC! :( )

But please do give more space for the game reviews! U could cut down on the number, and give a 2 page review of 1 game per month. Plus, of coz, don't fill up the space with screenshots, and give more importance to the actual review (viz. gameplay, sound etc.) instead. :)

OR, up the publish rate for SKOAR (make it a monthly or sumthin') and bring down the price :).

Coming back to life ..
I rulez .. :p

Wow .. This time I liked the magazine too .. (Dont ask abt the DVD :( ) ..

The Cyborg times was the best article .. Byte and Raaabo were great .. So was Ram Mohan Rao ..

Btw . .. I missed Suprotip Ghosh .. I guess there are a lot of new writers in now .. The one who wrote abt Broadband was nice one .. But his email address was misprinted as readersletter@thinkdigit.com .. Goof Up ..?

And dunno why was ZeroOne posted again .. I skipped them safely .. :p ..

And yeah .. I noticed in the evening that my tip was also selected for printing .. :D .. Thanks for that .. I mean printing the spelling all right this time .. :p .. :D .. Now I can show it to my parents again ..

Well.. I havent read the whole mag as yet .. So I ll edit this post afterwards..

It would have been gr8 if u had provided Brian Lara cricket on CD rather than DVD coz majority ppl dont have DVD and cricket is a game many ppl
want to play.

I liked these two the best:
The Cyborg times
Agent 001 , (my all time fav.)

and also the animation article, the incredible kamal , who made hairs for the character. :p

The DVD was better than last months and could have been done better.

I recieved the mag on 7 Jan,which is an improvement of sorts,because from last 2 months i have been getting it on 16 or 17 of that month.
This time,the contents were good,Cyborg Times was cool.
Where did u guys get the idea of ttp (Thought Transfer Protocol).

(That Google Ad remainded me the old Digit Backbyte joke,Windows 2010,install directly into brain!!).
Also the Graphics card test was good,i was expecting that XFX would perform well and they did!!You see,XFX is the only card manufacturer who gives right value for money.

I may want to subscribe to your magazine but your gift offer is not really attractive at all. 4 DVDs that too Hindi movies.
May be if you offer some good English movies like Lord of Rings: Trilogy etc.. or some hardware offers.
Chip is offereing hardwares like optical mouse/kbd, wireless optical etc..
Atleast provide many options in selecting gifts. I'm not against Hindi, but i like English movies other than any language movie.

Right off the assembly line
Beware!!! ADware + Spyware in games and software!!!

I installed the bombermania game from the jan 2005 CD..and it infected my computer with loads of ads and spyware!!! i also tried to install one of the MSN name utilities from the CD..luckily i read the license agreement which stated that the 180SearchAssistant would also be installed..180SearchAssistant is a well known adblaster..it'll give you lots of popups!

Has anyone else come across other instances of spyware/adware in the bundled software??? post them here!
