Despite what friend achitnis wrote on his website and the thread which was at kalyan‘s journal, I picked up a copy of PCQ from the vendor cause emblazoned across the cover was the word “LINUX” in bright red!!
The mag has 145 pages out of which about 60 are ads + product reviews + letters to editor – OK! they need to earn money somehow, times are tough!!
BUT what really turned me off was the misleading title page – It talked about “the Desktop Linux GUI” – What I really found inside was few pages about KDE (no mention of GNOME or any other WM) to top it all the KDE version they are talking about is OLD!! most probably even older than what they had distributed with the PCQ 7.1 CD
I fail to understand what has gone wrong at PCQ – when I started writing, writing for PCQ was a dream come true but now it is sheer disillusionment.
I hope someone takes the things to task and restores the mag to its past glory
