Chuq is correct, MacUser is a real winner, good in-depth reviews, good 
technical discussions, very valuable short mini-reviews.  Most importantly
it is not another "aint the Mac the most wonderful thing since Sex" magazine.

My subscription to MacWorld expired and I was tempted to resubscribe but
I'm giving my business to MacUser instead. Let's just pray the Mac market
is big enough to support this mean Mac magazines.
