Have your CD and read it too......

Pros The best Mac magazine around for the price.
Cons Haven't found any yet!
Recommended it? Yes

Every time I receive an issue I am amazed. With your subscription you not only get the monthly magazine, but you get a free CD with every issue. The CD contains trials, demos, freeware and shareware. It is a great thing to be able to try before you buy a product, or to try out a shareware before... Read full review »

Pros Well-Written articles, bright, interesting
Cons None!
Recommended it? Yes

I first found this magazine in November of 1999. I was creating my own magazine for a design class I was in and needed a Mac magazine to get some ideas and pictures from. Well, the only one my local Wal-Mart had was MacAddict. I feel in love! I read every article, every piece of written word in the... Read full review »

Easy to Understand

Pros the CD, layout
Cons too many ads at the back
Recommended it? Yes

Nothing frustrates me more than topic specific magazines that sound like a foreign language. Many of the computer magazines on the market seem to be writing to the people that invented the computer rather than the group of us that use it for work and pleasure.

Mac Addict - You got That!

Pros Free software
Cons NONE
Recommended it? Yes

What a wonderful magazine! I love the articles and especially the CD with the freeware and shareware and demos of all the current software available out there for the poor neglected Macintosh. It seems as though the world runs on PCs but I have to tell you that my old MacIIsi is still running after... Read full review »

Did I mention it comes with a CD?

Pros CD chock full 'o software, colorful graphics
Cons Mindless writing, as funny as a head cold
Recommended it? No

All loyal Mac followers should be familiar with MacAddict, which plays the Court Jester to MacWorld's Emperor. As a hard-core Mac addict myself, I have struggled with how to review this bit of media, because while they try hard, it never rises above the level of quasi-informative.

If You're 14 ... this is for you...

Pros comes with a disk
Cons immature, silly, stupid, language is PG at times
Recommended it? Yes

I've been a faithful reader of Mac Addict since issue one, and even had a letter published back a few years ago... however I've seen a long spiral into juvenile publishing lately.

The magazine is hip-slick and cool if your in the teenage crowd. The letters don't any longer make much sense... Read full review »

The most useful Mac Magazine

bycollin_ong Dec 5, 1999
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Great How-To's and monthly CD
Cons Overlook the pro-Mac rabidity to find the good stuff
Recommended it? Yes

MacAddict lives up to its title by being rabidly pro-Mac and pro-Apple in its news and commentary. It's a bit over the top even for a pro-Mac and pro-Apple person like myself. However, you shouldn't dismiss it just because of this, because inside is the most useful magazine Mac users can subscribe... Read full review »

Jam-packed information and entertainment!

Pros CD! Absolutely amazing publication
Cons I only wish I could get one every day!
Recommended it? Yes

There is only one word to describe this magazine, "Freakin' Awesome!" (Pun: That is the one of the options of their rating system.) The reviews are great at comparison shopping, they give you the good and bad on the hottest new hardware and software. Not to mention the CD, 650 megs of pure... Read full review »

Defenders of the Mac

Pros Pro Macintosh, Great Reviews, Fun and Fresh content
Cons Are there really any?
Recommended it? Yes

The Macintosh is unfortunately a not so well represented platform in the media. There are alot of PC oriented and general computing magazines out there. The Mac has a few of it's own, however the biggest of them all (in my opinion seems to be Macworld). Now Macworld is a fine magazine however it... Read full review »

Microsoft = Satan ?

byErgoPropterHoc Nov 27, 1999
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros Included CD contains a whole bunch of software
Cons A bit heavy on the anti-Microsoft rhetoric
Recommended it? No

Do you believe that Microsoft Windows is the root of all evil in the universe? Is Windows the direct or indirect cause of everything bad that has ever happened to you? Did you quit your last job on the first day because you found out that someone in some other department at the company had a PC on... Read full review »
