DTR Magazine - Sound Interesting?

Hi guys,

I'm wondering by poll here how many of you would be willing to subscribe to a magazine if the DTR decided to publish one? Its been kicked around some, doing a monthly or quarterly publication. I am wondering what your thoughts are.

Jack

I voted yes, although it's really a "maybe..."

I guess it would depend on how good the content was and vendor listings, articles, etc...

Voted yes...but would lean more towards an electronic based pub (web or PDF or both). that way print off what you want to keep in hard copy and the rest remain electrons.

The only thing with the magizine is you could probably find all of the information contained within the magizine through this awesome site..articles, tips, How to's...

This site is a magizine in itself

That's kind of what I was wondering (even though I voted yes). What would be in the magazine that isn't already on the site?

Hoss - only if you are wearing high heels to boot!!

On a more serious note - publication and administrative costs for hard copy stuff can be pretty pricey. I think keeping the website up to date with accesible and relevant information might be more cost effective. IMHO.

I think its a fine thing. The e-version sounds not too bad but I vote for the printed- hard to drag to computer into my "reading room" you see..
