Don't think so.

To read the magazine offline, you need to install a reader. And that is not available for linux . And the online interface doesn't seem to work either on my computer. Got this error

Unable to complete issue loading. Error code: 8

I have been reading PC Magazine for years and I often cite it in posts here. Sad to say, Ziff-Davis is discontinuing the print version and PC Magazine will now be online only. I suppose it was inevitable. The parent Ziff-Davis has been in bankruptcy and the magazine has been getting thinner and thinner as advertising dried up. The world financial crisis must have been the final blow. I will miss the print edition and I hope the Web content version will continue to have the same level of reporting and content. January will be the last print edition.

So here's the deal, "Download our software to read e versions of magazines and get 1 year free subscription". Quite simple, isn't it? But somehow looks like a ADWARE sh*t to me. I wonder why should we need to download some crappy client just to read 12 free subscribed copy offline, where is my PDF?
