onlinesubscriptions<at>computoredge.com (replace the <at> with @) I have been reading this publication since about 2000 when I was in school for my AA in Network Enginnering. Back then it was on paper. Great resource for parts and articles. Many of the articles are aimed at current working Professionals but there are many articles that will appeal to the layman as well.

Protonic.com has been an absolute lifesaver for me. Unlike many "forums", you don't have to sift through the opinions of several "techs". ONE of many techs will take your question & keep e-mailing back & forth til your problem is solved. It is free but asks for a rating of each tech and will certainly appreciate donations. It is a very well run site. Also they keep a record of what equipment you are using so you don't have to input all that every time you ask a question. Very user friendly.

The best computer forum in Australia is www.whirlpool.net.au. Covers all aspects of computers inc networking, hardware, software VoIP, internet etc. Aimed at the Australian computer environment, but would be useful for all computer users.

I subscribed to most of the newsletters mentioned. I got a query back from Steve Bass asking where i heard about his newsletter. I sent a link to this article. Here is his reply:

Thanks, Ron. That's some glowing endorsement. Best $100 I ever spent.

Hey Leo, if all you got was $100 (grin) I have a bridge you might be interested in.
I too was pleased to see that I was already subscribed to a few of your reader's top picks.
I'm actually not sure what $100 he might be referring to (perhaps he advertised with me at some point, but that would be so long ago that I've clearly forgotten about it.) The Top 5 results in article above were 100% the result of the votes of my newsletter readers. :-)
