I'd be interested in some feedback, how difficult you think it is to
actually get that magazine (other than ordering it directly from New
Media).
 
When Linux Format was finally released, I was able to get a copy from
our
local newspaper stand in Borehamwood (mind you, Borehamwood is a
_very_
small village), and he got rid of his copies within a few days (o.k.,
o.k., two copies went to our office :) . I haven't seen the Linux
Magazine
around here after its release, neither have I seen Linux User in the
stores.

The UK Linux Magazine is based on the german 'Linux Magazine', which
has
been around for 3-4 years now. So they can certainly claim to have
some
experience with publishing Linux magazines (no, I do not have shares
in
Linux New Media :-) .
