Picked up the may/june copy of PC Pilot on friday and there on page 16 , in the "star performers from the internet" section is great little feature on Deane's Cresco, with 4 good screenshots.....well done Mr B thumbup1.gif thumbup1.gif And on the CD that comes with the mag is a great 4min movie showing off VLC New_Zealand_etc.gif....go Timmo thumbup1.gif great to see NZ going global.

I having to re think how much longer i can get the magazine....its become a major purchase now costing $28.60!! ....its a good read....but, a bit hard to justify at that price.
Ive read it right through, so if any one wants it and the cd....save your money and pm me, I'll send it to you.

I get every issue of my PC Pilot from my local Bookshop for $NZ20.00 per copy!!! Might be better to go try down that road
Cheers

For some strange reason I got a free copy winkyy.gif First time I'd ever read the magazine. Was nice to be asked to have my Cresco included and great to see Timmos VLC getting a plug as well. Little ole NZ does pretty well in the FS world !!

Hi folks,
just to comment regarding that most wonderful magazine PC pilot and its costs.
Our local book ship does sell it for around $20 but I got a subscription for a Christmas present from the publisher and it costs around $12 a copy on current exchange rate.
not a bad deal for such a quality publication.

kind regards

Harold
