Pros: Very informative
Cons: Subscription is a bit pricey

I love the magazine PC World. It's very informative, it's not a magazine full of just advertisements. I've learned a lot about many different areas of computing, and different software from this magazine. I look forward to seeing the magazine in my...

Pros: Clear, Concise
Cons: None

As a person who strictly used a personal computer at work, I was pleasantly surprised to find this magazine wasn't over my head. All the articles and charts are very clear and helpful.

Since subscribing, I have used the knowledge gained from...

Pros: Informative, Well laid Out
Cons: Lot of Ads

As a subscriber to PC World, I can't begin to tell you about the wealth of information that is contained in each issue. From the product reviews and comparisions to the articles contained in each issue, I can't wait to receive the magazine in the mail...

Pros: Articles
Cons: price per issue, subscription is the way to go

This is a great magazine that covers a variety of topics. Well written and presented. There is, of course, advertising but it isn't as much as you would find in other computing magazines. It is well worth the price. There is an excellent section in...

Pros: informative
Cons: advertisments

I subscribe to this magazine and have found it helpful in finding the dirt on ISP's and diferent search engines, I have found diferent sites for the holidays and activities online to help my 11 and 10 year old niece and nephew with everything from school...

Pros: Some decent articles, nice pictures, glitzy cover ..
Cons: 1)   Contributors not checked for accuracy.
2)    Advertisers may have poor ratings for certain products ..

There is no such thing a plain computer magazine .. at least not from "PC World".  In between about 70%  advertising content, you have a plethora of subjects .. ranging from cameras to GPS to cell phones, etc.  I am not renewing my subscription.

Emails to them challenging article content are ignored.

Simply stated it is serioulsy overpriced and the malarkey about subscription savings is just that .. the outageous "Newstand  price" of about $7 creates the advertised 76% savings for a subcrition price of   of about  $1.66 per issue
