Re: What Linux Magazines are you reading?

[Danny Sauer <sauer@cloudmaster.com>]

I read (and subscribe to) Linux Journal and, though it's not Linux 
Specific, Sysadmin Magazine.  I read both because they tend to - in 
general - have a technical depth that I find lacking most other 
Linux-oriented magazines.  The magazines I don't read are those whose 
covers look just like the "Teenage Videogamer" magazines on the same 
rack.  You know, they always have some stylized penguin, probably with 
spiky hair trying to look tough, cool, or some combination thereof. :) 
I've picked up copies of Linux Format and a couple of others previously, 
but didn't continue reading because the target audience seemed to be 
more newbies and/or more of a "home sysadmin" crowd.  The (computer) 
magazines that I do read tend to have more of a focus on people who've 
had some computer science background, for lack of a better description. 
  I don't like being talked down to by someone who probably doesn't know 
as much as I do to begin with, basically. :)

For context, I prefer books from O'Reilly and Manning, because they're 
typically made up of more detailed content without fluff, though 
possibly approached with a sense of humor.  I want the same things from 
magazines.

--Danny, far from "knowing it all", but far from newbie, too ;)
