Not really surprising consider how tough the magazine market is. Also, I think being so KDE-centric didn't help, since most of the most popular distros for newbies seems to be GNOME-based.

The issue is not Linux. It's about journalism and paper-form (sometimes, albeit more rarely, digital) publication. How many newspapers are closing down every day?<a class="user" href="http://www.furiousseasons.com/archives/2006/12/love_american_style_web_20_and_narcissism_1.html">http://www.furiousseasons.com/archives/2006/12/love_american_style_web_20_and_narcissism_1.html</a>Kudos to Tux Mag. I hope they keep the excellent Web site vibrant.
