Hi Michael

I have tried a number of the basic magazines, but finally settled on 
subscribing to Linux Magazine which is written in Germany but has a UK 
english version.

Linux Magazine is "part of an international group of Linux publications 
founded in the early days of the Open Source movement."

It has sections for all levels from the Beginner to Kernel & Guru news.
The Sections are:
News - S/W, Business, Linux World, Kernel, Insecurity
Cover Stories
Reviews
Know-How
Sysadmin
Programming
Linux User
Community.

There is an On-line preview http://www.linux-magazine.com/issue/64 
notified via email and the latest distributions/packages on the DVD.

see: http://www.linux-magazine.com/ for more info.

I find it reasonable value.

Cheers
