Back in early March ‘07, I just had to stop at the magazine shop at Tesco to buy a magazine for my wife… and to my amazement, there is the ‘Linux For You’ magazine March issue at one of the magazine rack. The magazine is from India, cost RM14.50 (now the price has increased to RM19.00) and highly informative on Linux, of course. The cool thing about the magazine is that it is usually bundled with 1x DVD of Linux distribution and 1x CD with Linux softwares.

March '07 Issue

I haven’t been following the magazine for at least 3-4 months and now, when I finally wanted to buy a copy for myself, it came bundled with a Slackware 11 Installation DVD! Isn’t that great?? I have always wanted to get the original printed-cover Slackware installation DVD/CD (since its my favorite Linux distro)…. This is very inspiring!
