I voted for the PDF, but would gladly pay for a hard copy as others have mentioned. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif)

I enjoy a good picture mag in an easy chair or on the back porch or ...well...y'know.... My neck hurts when I sit at the computer too long. "Esses" is my favorite mag ($45, printed quarterly) soon to be overtaken -but not unsubscribed- by "ninefourteener"

So I vote print but I'll punch the save button on the PDF too.

I'm already thinking of a submission...maybe something along the line of, " I pet my 911 but I drive the wheels off my ninefourteener!"

I like getting it old school in the mail! I get almost everything electronically these days. Could I print one up? Sure but will it look as good as the one Steve will send out? No & odds are I wouldn't bother printing it. So I'd look at it as a PDF & that would be that. I like the idea of a coffee table 914 magazine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) " I LIKE IT ALOT" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

So I would gladly pay or donate each year for it


(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif)

I think with the PDF, I'd do a once over quick read, and then not look at it again. With the print version, I'd read it more in-depth, and likely keep re-reading it.

I'm with these guys. I'd like both. But prefer the hard copy. Big on the saving and the re-reading.
I concur with a comment above. When it comes out in PDF I only look at it once then delete it. The Oregon PCA newsletter comes out in PDF only now and I only read it once. Where as the Porsche magazines I get at Barnes & Noble remain on the coffee table and night stand until I get the next months pile.

PDF and offer a coffee table year end print. For a nice annual print id probably go the $20 route.


This is also a very good idea. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
