My neighbor wanted a subscription to PC Magazine. It has not been available in a print format since 2009. Is there another good magazine similar to PC Mag that is available in print? Thank you.

It depends on what you mean by a "good" magazine. I am going on 70 & have always loved electronics and magazines. I go to thrift stores to try to buy magazines ( tough as most don't carry them). Same with digital and paper magazines of all kinds. I 2 am a bit old school as I love magazines ( say for the toilet reading or table reading etc). Do a search on Amazon and at this site: Zinio - https://www.zinio.com/
The sad thing is eBay would be a great site to buy a year's worth of the magazines, but most sellers have no clue and forget to offer shipping via Media Rates which are dirt cheap. Instead it would cost him $4-$10 per issue. Again I get the old school paper thing, but maybe a Kindle or table reader with a digital subscription for $5-$10 a year. As to great mags I liked over the years ( all digital now except Maximum PC which is like $50 a year for paper copies) PC World, PC Mag, Maximum PC ( Hobby mag on mainly equipment and software) and Computer Shopper.
