Laptop Magazine

Think about it, where the heck am I going to look on the net for new cell phones that haven't come out yet? I'd have to search forever and at multiple websites.

With laptop mag, I look at all the things that I've never seen before and then look them up on the net (isn't that what internet is for?). It's a great resource for seeing some of the latest products. The user needs to do thier own homework and make a researched decision about the product.

Finally, when looking at electronics, I like advertising. It's another way to get either new ideas on products you never thought or if you want to buy something, it's easier to locate with an advertisement.

Laptop Magazine is an excellent resource for the mobile professional. The staff has done a great job of reviewing products relevant to those individuals attached to their laptops and related gadgets. Despite the name, the magazine is not merely about laptops but also the tools and strategies for the peripatetic white-collar worker.

With information on laptops, mobile phones, hotels and airlines, Laptop Magazine is loaded with great insights. Its layout is excellent as it appears far less cluttered than other computer magazines - much like how the Harvard Business Review differs from Star Magazine. Yet, it is a bit light on specific computer tasks and tweaking. This may be due to the demographic of the audience, which is most likely a collection of mid-level executives and sales professionals instead of hands-on technology gurus. As such, the magazine is well worth the read as it will certainly save time with your work, travel, and technology purchases in the future.


Pros:
Excellent product information
Great organization and layout


Cons
Light on nuts and bolts computer technology
No concise source of the laptop reviews (i.e. like Motor Trend has a summary of tests with dates and results with every magazine).
