In episode 74 Ray said "Have you guys thought about producing a magazine?" We hadn't - but we have now! Have you ever been sitting in a pub reading a beer mat for the want of anything better to do? Or reading a £5.99 Mac magazine stuffed with advertising and nothing much else? The British Mac Magazine will be a Mac magazine for the switcher, the enthusiast and the pro Mac user. Incorporating St. British Mac (we've got a corker from Darren Davies for issue 1), news and gossip, behind the scenes look at the podcast (no nudity), articles, essays, hacks & cracks (absolutely no nudity). A magazine that is as unique, eccentric and as fun as the podcast, created by the British Mac community. Issue 1 will be free, but following issues will cost £2 or bargain yearly subscriptions will be available (yearly subscribers will also get a free British Mac Annual plus the occasional bonus Magazine only podcast special). All monies collated from the cover price of the magazine will be distributed equally amongst the contributors. So if you fancy subscriting, contributing or commenting on the British Mac Magazine please comment here or email contributions to contributions@britishmacmagazine.com or visit www.britishmacmagazine.com for a sneak-peek at the front cover for Issue One.

I'll do what i can as a switcher. However, other than 'it just works' I'm a bit stuck as to what i could contribute.

I'm in, even if my contribution is regaling you with tales of my time in captivity, at the hands of the rampant hula girls!

Count me in. As the proud owner of the only Mac in the NHS, I can offer musings on belonging to a persecuted minority - but I'll certainly be subscribing. Might even be able to persuade those who spend your taxes to pay for it! ;-)

I would like to contribute an article, perhaps something related to all things Music on a Mac? I can also help with switchers that use a PC but are thinking of using a Mac so I can help with alternatives and such.
I know there are millions of sites you can get this information from, but maybe not presented in the way that I could! Get back to me if you think this could work. Also, how about starting a thread asking for articles that people would like in the magazine?
I would like to see something abouth product placement with the Mac in mind. So many programmes/films (especially US) feature Macs and always wonder what the deal is behind the appearance of the machines...

Any help, contibutions and advice I can offer the cause? I'm a pro photographer (25 years+) and have always used Macs in my work... shooting teathered from the cameras to them.
