Didn't read the whole thread.

My dad bought the very first Digit issue (June 2001) and I have known Digit ever since. There was no forum back then, The forum came up in 2003, I think. I became a member in April 2005.

My College library used to stock Digit Mag every months since 2005 & i used to read them, as i can't afford to buy Magazine. I used to love the Troubleshooting section very much.

After i moved from hometown to Bangalore, i used to get these copies at my office library & never feel like buying them. As my office Library serve the purpose. But whenever i'm mobile, i grab a copy either from Airport [crossword] or Railway Stations.

Don't exactly remember how but it was back in 1997/98 when Digit was Chip. Bought the book occasionally till early 2003 and then quite frequently (8-10 issues every year) till 2007. Then sporadic as we started getting broadband. After a two year break bought the anniversary edition last month.

Wait I thought there was already a mag called Chip with it's own website and everything?

Yes, Chip used to be another Mag like Digit & they had their own website & forum. Forum was shutdown few year back.

Yeah I know that. I used to buy their magazine. Lywyre said that Digit used to be Chip. Is that true?

I don't see how that could be because I used to buy both mags simultaneously.

I doubt as i used to check both of them at my college Library since 2005. Don't know what happened before 2005.

Actually, Jasubhai Digital Media used to publish Chip, which is licensed by Vogel-Veriag INC of Germany. Then in 2001 Chip withdrew and Jasubhai started its own mag called Digit, with the same staff of Chip (AFAIK). Chip was then licensed to Infomedia18.

Raaabo can give more details.
