I agree that 12 bucks isn't much to venture, but at the same time I'm
curious to see what the magazine will give me that I don't already get
online for free. Thus the reason for me wanting to see the first issue.
I'm hoping that it will offer me some value once I see a copy, and if I find
that to be the case (and I'm under the impression that it will) then I will
subscribe.
