 For techie gamers, 2002-01-09
It's no MacUser (RIP). The current version of this magazine is too technical/geeky for the average Mac user--far from the content when I last subscribed years ago (I made the mistake of subscribing without seeing a recent issue). The issues are now thin and heavy with advertising. The writing, though refreshingly evangelistic at times, seems to be geared toward young gamers and the like. -- a Mac user since 1990.

Useful info, great buying tips, best of the Mac mags, 2001-12-06
I have been a MacAddict subscriber since Issue #1 and have since discontinued all of the other Mac magazines I used to subscribe to. MacAddict is lighthearted but every month provides genuinely useful information in a manner which is neither too techy nor too condescending. Reviews of products are fair and impartial. MacAddict helps newbies and seasoned Mac users alike get the most from their Macs, and I recommend it without reservation to anyone looking for a gift for a Mac user. The monthly CD is especially nice for those who don't have a broadband internet connection and can't easily download the huge demos of new games.

 Save Time, SAve Money, Save Your Sanity, SKIP THIS!!!!, 2001-12-01
I love my Mac. I have had a Mac since college, since the first "Wild Eeep" was available. But unless you are a real EggHead, I find that this and the "other" Mac Mag is just too much Mac Mush. Honestly, what I do is go to Amazon.com's electronics section (...) and peruse the information there about products. I don't have to fight my way through a bunch of cyber-jargon or EggHead lingo. And I don't have to fight for three months to get the renewal taken off my credit card.

A highly biased review from MacAddict's Editor in Chief, 2001-11-02
Hey, I'm being honest up front -- full disclosure, and all that jazz...I'm the Editor in Chief at MacAddict, and I gotta say that if you're a fan of the Mac, you'll definitely love our magazine. Our monthly goal is to help you get the most out of your Mac, so we cram each issue full of how-to stories, tips'n'tricks, product recommendations, and bright shiny objects -- all written and laid out with that now-famous MacAddict attitude. If you love your Mac and want to enjoy yourself while learning how to squeeze the last possible drop of fun out of it -- and bend it to your will when using it for actual work, as well -- you'll love our magazine. And if you don't, tell me why -- maybe you've got some great ideas about how we could improve it.
