 VERY GOOD MAGAZINE FOR PC REVIEWS, ECT. June 14, 2008

 Not much value add May 27, 2003

The problem with Computer Shopper is, it's neither a serious trade magazine like PC Mag, or a shopper's paradise like its former self was. If you want hardware tips, Maximum PC is way better. You can find pretty much everything in Computer Shopper for free on the web ...
 Fantastic resource for PC builders. May 20, 2003
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
A few weeks ago, I started building my first PC from scratch and have found Computer Shopper magazine the best resource. The reviews and articles really helped me decide what parts to use, and the recent "how to" guide on assembling a PC was a godsend. I don't think there's another magazine out there that provides such in-depth advice -- their writers really know what they're talking about! Plus, if I can't find what I'm looking for in the magazine itself, Computer Shopper's Web Buyer directs me to the sites where I can find what I need -- both technical help and the cheapest parts. I can't thank them enough for saving me all that time I would have spent surfing the Internet myself. I'd definitely recommend that anyone interested in customizing their own PC should sign up for Computer Shopper.
GOOD READ, VERY USEFUL May 20, 2003

I have been reading Computer Shopper since it helped me buy my first home computer three years ago. I usually save the previous 12 issues for reference. Product guides are very useful and I use the articles to help me upgrade my computer or solve nagging problems that I can't fix. I also use the Web Buyer section to discover new sites.
Despite the Changes, Still a Winner May 20, 2003

OK, so there aren't as many ads (which incidentally helps its portability), but I've been reading Computer Shopper for 6 years now, and I still find it a great read and a very valuable resource. I read every issue not only for its usefulness, but also for entertainment value - I guess you can call me a tech geek! It's a great tool for keeping up to date with the latest high tech gear - I particularly like the Alfred Poor's Computer Cures articles and how-to guides for us "do-it-yourselfers". Its features and buying guides are relevant and very informative. Over the past few years, I have bought several computer systems for myself and family members, thanks to advice from the experts at Computer Shopper and their recommendations on where to buy. So, even though I do miss the "tech-mall" feel of the old magazine, I'm still a fan and would recommend it to anyone interested in buying technology.
