I know I can make one generalization about computer people that we will all agree. We love free stuff! If you are like me, you still love to read things in hard copy. The computer is ok but holding a book or magazine is still my preferred way of reading. There are some very nice IT magazines that if you take the time to fill out a simple questionnaire, they will mail you for free. Some of these are surprisingly well done. Here are a few good ones to start with. Hopefully others here will add to this list. If you know of a great free magazine that is IT related, please post!
