^^ old members left (went to TE i guess). no new members. post queries & after a week if you are lucky, will receive a few replies. but a few loyal members were still hooked (ico, desibond, asingh, topgear). by end of 2009 & Q1 2010 jaskanwar, piyush & i joined and forum was a bit active (i trolled & posted lots of nonsense initially :mrgreen: ). but forum was dead slow & db error every now & then. some serious problem which made certain members unable to post. once everything was fixed, forum was back online & better.

It was the year 2004.I saw a magazine called Digit in newspaper stand in Ultadanga , I thought it may be related to electronic circuit or something but after reading the cover I understand its related to computer. At that time my craze for computer and gaming was at pick level, also there are lots of free games provided with the magazine. So for the game and some technological news I made my mind to purchase that magazine. From that time I never missed any Edition of Digit Magazine.:)
Here's the photo of my first Digit Magazine

This was the FIRST magazine I purchase from Calcutta (Kolkata) Airport back then....

Later I realized that Macintosh was not my cup of TEA and so, went to a book stall in M G Road, and picked up PC QUEST ( 1996 / 1997) and then switched to CHIP in 1998 ( Digit was called Chip in those days ! )

This is all it begun..... I joined TDF after reading about it in the magazine itself. They used to carry a screenshot of the TDF Index Page in the magazine those days, advertising the FORUM.

Joined just when I sent a cheque for the subscription as my PC had some ram issue. Spammed and trolled a lot initially (but forum was going downhill then, so escaped a ban somehow :lol: ).

Am I the only one who never used the DVDs that came with the Mag :))

You're not alone, and neither do I actually use the DVDs I get from my LFY's subscription.

Last year, googling helped me finding digit, wanted an Indian forum where I could ask about my PC specs in advance. Never heard of it before that.

In December about 4 years ago, I was in Goa for vacations. Had nothing to do in hotel so started to look out through magazines and newspapers. Found Digit there and got to know that GTA 4 will also be released... :p

Well when i was small, i used to buy magazines from stalls whenever i used to travel by trains. Used to buy chip, digit, autocar etc. I used to buy tech mags just for the cd's. I Never used to read them, after some years when i found them lying around i started turning pages, and was engrossed in reading. Buy it regurly since then. Came to know about tdf after visiting the digit website..

I knew about them through one of my neighbors back in around 2002, but never gave a crap. It was in 2004 when at a magazine store, and a Digit copy caught my eye, an article on gaming careers. Continued buying the magazines since then, tried Chip as well but it was nowhere near as good as Digit. Digit had a certain quality to them, they felt mature and the visual design was sweet to look at, and loved the Bazaar section like crazy! Stopped getting them in around 2008. Joined the forum in around 2005, though this is my second account.
