Wow! So soon, you guys are really fast. I appreciate that.

Anyways, about the inclusion; here's my list :-

1. Give a lot more space to Ubuntu software than the usual Linux section & include lots of them. We all really need that.

2. Lots of High Quality Wallpapers.

3. Some classic movies and trailers of movies from Bollywood also.

What about a DVD full of UBUNTU Goodies coz the Free Ubuntu CD doesnt come with all required s/w so better to make a DVD full of those essential s/w including other s/w also, like development tools, multimedia toold, all plug-ins required to play MP3, Wav, etc. formats.

Hi

I don't get it. If you can give IE7 and WMP why can't you give vista and office 2007? They both are free to download from the site for genuine windows, but the size is just too big.

Can someone explain? Or give the software on dvd?

give a collection of linux dependencies....it bugs the most when trying out linux anywhere

stuff like general applications, codec packs, drives for sound cards & graphics card, GTK runtimes etc

some linux themes would be nice, like the Ubuntu to OS X convertion guide

Exclamation Re: Action against government censorship of the Internet

How about doing an article on increasing government censorship of the Internet? Internet was the last place free of govt. mishandling in India largely due to their ignorance of it. Not any more .

If a publication like Digit covers this it will be great for the cause as it affects everyone of us, even the ones who do not use the Internet. The goverment shouldn't think they can get away with anything.

great idea.....great to see people actuallyasking for articles also, instead of just software ^_^

If possible can the article be substantially exhaustive.....I wouldn't like just a two page thing on this....In fact, this should be the case for all articles; I'd rather know a lot about one thing, than a little about many things.

PS: You always tell us (rightly) not to pirate; so how come you print a fasttrack to photoshop (costing tens of thousands) instead of GIMP?

Also, please introduce a regular column for those who want to get started in programming; Not to teach the syntax of a language, but concepts behind it; You're our only hope, since no Indian books (that i am aware of) cover this well. In the same vein, how about something like a GOOD fast track to 3-D modelling, with the ("boring") maths parts included.

And one more (whew) thing: please include on your cd's all the tools (trial/full versions) relating to or mentioned in the accompanying fasttrack, ALL of them. BTW, i'm doing this on xubuntu, thanks to the April Fasttrack. ^_^

Exactly, I can download my own software, thank you.

If you really want to distinguish yourself from other "IT" magazines, write something intellectually stimulating and that really matters in the long run for a change . It's really sad that foreign media is covering this issue better than mainstream Indian media.

Does anyone mind when a majority DIGIT subscribers shout SuSE ..Come on yaar.. For how long you will keep on postponing things.. It doesn't matter if you give a Linux distribution once in 3 or 4 months, but ensure this time around it is SuSE 10.1(full or the latest one.Puhhhhh....lllllleeeeeezzzzzzzzz

@led_shankar:
You've touched upon 3 of my pet subjects - Photoshop, programming and 3D.

The Fast Track to Photoshop was pretty much a demand thing - we'd got a ludicrous number of e-mails requesting it, and when we did it the second it became feasible.
The GIMP...ah...well...don't get me started.

A Fast Track to 3D modelling is another thing we'll do when it becomes feasible (time + manpower requirements, you know)

Finally, we probably won't carry regular articles for programming newbies, but we'll try to include more every once in a while.

Cinema 4D is on the August DVD (you're welcome )

I found the Bryce 5.5 demo disappointing when compared to version 5 - but that's just me.

Lightwave doesn't have a demo version (or did I miss something on their site?)

And yes, we've received enough requests for 3D-related articles to consider something there, so watch out.

P.S. I prefer Mental Ray, even though the documentation assumes that you have several degrees in Physics.
