As for me i love this magazine and cant wait for the next issue to arrive on my door. Keep up the good work DCM Team. Your real fans don't let stupid little details get in the way of a good read.

Thanks
PS, Tazzers........ Get a life !

Ouch. That'll leave a mark.

Constructive and mature to a fault. Well done you. Tell me. Do you look forward to the delivery of your Daily Mail with the same enthusiasm? Or is it the Sun? For the pretty picture on Page 3?

I do not expect maturity or factual accuracy form your good self sir but I do from something I am paying money for. If any readers use these reviews to help them make educated buying decisions then the reviewer is falling well short of the mark. It is a basic factual error brought about, I imagine, from not taking proper time to get to know the product. This is then compounded by a dodging of the issue in a reply filled with sarcasm and distain. Still he's got you panting over his shoulder like a good sidekick or loyal mutt telling him how much you love him so I'm sure that will provide some comfort for the poor confused soul.

They do on TuxRadar (well actually in the Linux Format forums). Ubuntu is better than Kubuntu and Xubuntu! Gnome is better than KDE, VI is better than Emacs.....etc...

He said that if there was something wrong they would print a correction. As far as that "always right" crap...it is just that, crap. I worked retail at one time and NEVER once did I tell a customer they were right when they were actually wrong. In fact I told many they were wrong "but I will do what you want". I actually got more respect from them for the honesty and they often became "my" customers and sought me out.

"always right crap " Its more a way of dealing a way of dealing with people, be polite, evan if the customer may be a **** and wrong.
