FREE GIVE AWAY BOOK. 280.

I would have been happier to receive the free handbook as a subsciber than print out the edition. Please give us a choice rather than a decision.

Poor Deal For Subscribers

I agree with other subscribers. Why cant we have the booklet as well? I will cancel my subscription if this continues and just buy the issues that look of interest to me from the shop.

FREE Christmas gift guide

At least getting the gift guide online is free to those of us who help keep ComputerActive alive. Printing and distributing it costs money (and more trees)so stop moaning and be grateful.

Well Done & thank you

Any responsible company will look at ways of reducing costs and how its operations impact on the environment. I think it is quite right that you have a choice to purchase the guide or as a subscriber have a free download. Roll on the time we have a reduced subsciption for downloading the magazine, again saving on paper and energy.

Download button

I can't see any problems with the download button but it might be worth double checking that the link is for computeractive not vnunet so www.computeractive.co.uk/2230092 Kind regards Tim
