Could we end this thread? 

Frankly speaking, it is not in the best interests of any of the magazines
to be compared on the basis of "highlights" like these. 

Just to put things into perspective for you - were PC World to bring out
Debian tomorrow, they'd be superheros for a while. 

And if PCQ or CHIP were to bring out a bad Linux CD, many of you would be
sitting here badmouthing them for a while.

Nobody wins from such comparisons, and they just create bad blood. If you
want to discuss a publication, let's talk about their positive points
("they are pro-Linux") rather than their most recent mistake ("they
brought out a corrupted Linux CD").
