Sorry to hear this. [:(] Enjoyed this magazine since it came out. Published many reviews of wargames, from Matrix and others.

Online content will still be offered, so there's that.

I'm sorry to hear about that. [:(] I pick up a copy of it on occasion and really enjoyed it. I'm glad to hear that it will be available online! [:)]

Looks like going online only is working for Time magazine. Hard copy print media is dying... it is inevitable.

Better to embrace reality with an online publication.

I prefer hard copy editions. I no longer read US News and World Report after they basically killed the weekly hard copy edition a number of years ago.

Same with some other magazines. I used to deal with computers 70+ hours a week for work. My entertainment with the exception of gaming I want
no where near a computer.

I like holding the newspaper each day when I read. That said, I still have to go online too often for further depth. YUCK!!!

I very rarely buy historical magazines nowadays. Mainly because they usually have just 1-2 articles that interest me but I'd have to buy tens of pages of articles that don't interest me.

Future ebook readers with A4 colour e-ink screens are the only hope left it seems.

I feel more and more like Burgess Meredith in the Twilight Zone.

Haha, that's my all time favorite episode, "Time Enough At Last." [:D]
