Many magazines devoted to Macintosh computing have come and gone over the years, but
Macworld has aged gracefully and become the premier resource for news, reviews, tips, and chatter for the Apple crowd. But far from being a stale grande dame,
Macworld continues to pepper its articles and monthly columns by Andy Ihnatko and Christopher Breen with zest, humor, and unbiased viewpoints. The magazine also regularly attracts some of the best writers in the Mac universe, including Photoshop and prepress wizard Bruce Fraser, Quark guru David Blatner, and Adam Engst, editor of the popular
TidBits e-newsletter. Their insight and invaluable step-by-step tips help you get the most out of your Mac. But
Macworld's bread and butter comes from its heaping helping of reviews on the latest hardware systems, software, monitors, add-on gadgets, and more. They cut to the chase without a lot of fluff, offering review summaries with pros and cons, buying advice, and a rating scale of one to five mice (computer mice, that is).
--Agen G.N. Schmitz
This magazine is editorially aimed at the Macintosh owner and user. It contains information on Macintosh software for education, recreation and home and business productivity. As well, it reviews state-of-the-art commercial software.

| First time I had ever dealt with a third party regarding a magazine subscription. First issue arrived in time frame as promised. |
| PC on Kindle but not Mac ?? Need this on Kindle | 2009-11-23 | 4 / 5 |

I like this magazine, not great but very good. Would recommend but still wish that we could view Mac World on the iPhone via the Kindle app and/or via
the Kindle by itself. PC World is offered why not Mac World????

| I just got my first issue and it looks as though this will teach me a lot about my Macbook in language that's not too techy. MacWorld was recommended by a friend and I'll recommend it to others. |
| MacWorld Subscription Cover Not Shown | 2009-10-06 | 3 / 5 |

MacWorld has long been one of the best Macintosh resources in print. I have been a subscriber since the Premier issue in 1984 and continue my subscription to this day. Unfortunately, the magazine has slimmed down considerably through the years and some well respected writers have left over the past year, leaving one to wonder about the future of this otherwise fine publication.
Since this is a brief review of this Macworld "subscription," it is important I point out that the Macworld cover you see in the photo here is NOT what you will receive when you subscribe. That version, with the tiny barcode at the lower right, is the "news stand" edition. The subscriber edition looks much worse due to an enormous white rectangle on the cover, which is used for the inkjetting of subscriber address information. For your reference, I have taken a photo of my recent September 2009 issue, sitting it along side the news stand edition -- find it by going to the Flickr photo site and search using these keywords: Macworld cover compared.
While the cover may not matter so much to some subscribers, I for one greatly dislike what Macworld's editors are willing to sacrifice in order to save a few pennies. They didn't always have such an awful looking cover for subscribers.
Due to the marred subscription cover and rather lean content (versus what it used to be 10 years ago), I can only give Macworld 3/5 stars. And I say this with a heavy heart having subscribed to it for so many years. It is certainly not my intent to turn people away from this publication. Rather, I hope my words will inspire Mac enthusiasts interested in this publication to write Macworld with the aim of making it better. Macworld will only change for the better when readers voice direct feedback the editors. |
