Fasttrack to Web Desgin. Woot.

Really nice contents.

[hard_rock]

Again REPEATED SOFTWARES... That too same version. For updated versions its OK...But what about Macromedia Dreamweaver 8...It was given way back in December (I think)..Also COREL DRAW X3. Usually I look for 100MB+ NEW softwares in the DVD.But if they are repeated that too same version then what is the use of being a subscriber?

[manas]

Opera 9 Final Released but Opera 9 Beta 2 is bundled.

[FatBeing]

@hard_rock: Dreamweaver 8 has been given to tie in with the Fast Track - if you'll notice, a lot of the software is web design related. CorelDRAW X3 has been reviewed this month, so if you'd like to try it yourself, it's right there.

@manas: Opera 9 final released after we finalised the CD/DVD; it'll be a regular feature starting August

[vijay_7287]

Hmmm.. Fast Track on Web Design ...Koolllll

[gary4gar]

Autopatcher update:will it work as a standalone, because i don't have the previous full version.

yes I too wonder and whats its use,
no free games, there should be some with demos,
contents of the mag seems to be interesting,
please avoid repeat of softwares at least in a short span.

[azaad_shri75]

its very nice to see early update,however I request digit team to see that mags are available by atleast first of every month, as once I see the the update here I become restless for the mag and have to hunt for it thus spending as equal amount of mag on fuel also.

[azaad_shri75]

why isnt the website updated at?

[bazigaar_no_1]

Awesome contents...
Looking ahead towards a great Digit Month..

[nik_for_you]

nice contents .. but wont buy as now a days i dont have computer!!!

[techno_funky]

Fantastic! As usual another rocking fast track edition

[Tech&ME]

Fast Track on Web Design , hope it will help. Magazine contents are good but CD/DVD contents mostly are repeated. Please try to avoid it.

[thechamp]

where r previous issues on PDF format
its been exactly one year that u have not provided pdf issues
i have ben demandung the same for the last 2 months
but no one is listening

[plsoft]

There are many softwares that could have been added, instead of repeated ones, like Avid Liquid 7, the latest nero 7.xx.xx.xx, mandriva linux, etc etc,. Wat i'm saying is, anything new is better than repetition.

[Akhil Jain]

looking good

[Darthvader]

not bad to say the least

[JGuru]

The DVD/CD softwares collection is cool. Good job Digit guys. Bravo!!

[LegendKiller]

well another great magazine edition...
but i am sorry to say that cd contents dont throw u off ur chair....many a times software given,since nov'04 and b4,were way older than their current versions available in market for months like spyware doctor-3.2,bsplayer...
I cant see myself buying digit unless newer and much better contents are provided or a mgagzine only edition is provided,for which i will be the first to buy!!
i am not bashing digit,but only their cd/dvd offering could justify a high 200rs tag for special edition and 125/- otherwise...

[sanprince]

Are the software's (dreamweaver , coraldraw......etc) given in this month issue are trial/ demo versions or ae they FULL.. I hope someone will reply soon, as I am just confirming it before getting a copy for myself. thanks in advance..

[Aries]

The magazine is just 134 Pages

[sude]

hey guys this month i am leaving 4bangalore forever 4studies. and i am a newsstand reader of digit...
ithought that for a month or i will break the chain of buying diGit so as to cope up with the expenditure there... but it seems that diGit had already convinced me to buy this month's issue... ONLY BCOZ OF THIS MONTH'S FAST TRACK TO WEB DESIGN...

Full versions cannot be given in magazines Although by using cracks you can make them work like full but that is illegal.

I hope, U know that Ulead DVD Workshop 1.2 and many other softwares [which are repeated] are not related to web design and therefore, no justification. Arround 75% is repeated stuff and even same versions. I can not take that much of pain by making a list of repeated softwares because you are never going to improve. I have seen it in past. Feedback and suggestions are not taken care off. If I am not wrong, I think Vista is available for public download.

It is very simple that digit's survival depends upon the lack of broadband in smaller cities. When that happens, people can downlaod what ever they want and don't have beg digit. This month issue is complete shock. Number of repeated softwares have been increasing by passing of every month.
