The PC magazines giving Lin distros in DVD is sure a great idea. Really appreaciate it. It helps people like me who do not have broadband.
I found something strange checking the magazines last few months. Now, all these (Digit, Chip and PC World) give the same distro each month !! Like months back, all three gave Fedora same month, then it was Mint. This month it is Open Suse !
Is it because they just give which is popular and recently released version ? Only that makes all magazines give the same distro every month ?
I agree it may not be possible for each magazines to know what other magazine is planning to give, but last few months it all goes very similar / same.
Not a big deal, but for someone whos interested in Lin and buy all these magazines get the same DVD !
Not a complaint or something, but was wondering any others noticed this or this happens just con-incidential (or whatever it is called - typo may be - lol)
