It's not very fair to expect free copies, I'm sure people would be happy to
pay for a copy, it should make the mag look more professional that way (I'm
not saying it isn't, I think it is, but if it's handed out free..).  

That said I donated the several copies I got of Linux Answers to my linux
loving friends here down in Sutton.

I also buy the games loki/uk-emporium sell for linux even if I don't like
them, like Civ:CTP yawn.
