I never found Tux magazine particularly useful but its demise is part
of the larger upheaval going on over at Linux Journal which was
purchased last month: http://www.belltownmedia.com/node?from=1
Coupled with other recent changes accompanying the appointment of
Petreley as editor, I fear that we're seeing the end of Linux Journal
as we've known and loved it. (Personally, I find the new magazine
dimensions to be the most annoying thing--even above Petreley's
obnoxious ranting. The damn thing no longer fits on the toilet tank!)
I've heard some good things about Linux Magazine (out of Europe; not
the U.S. one) but have never gotten my hands on a copy.
