    This is so strange. I have just started scanning my back issues of Custom PC into a PDF format since last week! Is that prophetic or what?

    I've scanned issue 51, 57, 65, 67 and 72 so far. Just doing them as I see them from the pile I have, which dates back to 2004.

    After scanning them all I also want to recycle the issues...

    @Kingsley813 sounds a little like breach of copyright

    But I'm not distributing them though, it's just to be stored on my external hard drive - the physical issues take up too much space... Is that a breach of copyright? It's not to shared - the quality isn't that great anyway!! :0

    I suspect that'll be the case as it'll take some work to do and that has to be balanced against how many people will buy them (the theory being people will be more interested in more recent back issues). I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

    Glad to hear there's a digital archive in the making. I'm going to pretend you took my suggestion there :D

    Custom PC magazines are very informative to make back to back comparions with the old and new!

    The magaziine needs a makeover - more pages - more games reviews and forthcomming games, and a techi section! SORTED!

    I was just checking through my collection to see which issues I was missing (have emailed Paul) and only just noticed something... what happened to the letters page?

    What a great idea, I am sure it would have been less bother just to have chucked 'em!

    Just for my info - did the custom PC launch coincide with one of the i-series events and did you give out issue 1 for free in certain number there? Or was it a trial version of the mag? I am sure I remember the fanfare when you were first launched and getting a copy of *something* there.

    It would have been i15/16 or 17 I can't remember which.

    Got 017 today with the CPU Supertest! Excellent! RM put a bag over it and tagged it as 'damaged before it reached the UK' considering it was sent FROM the UK that seems odd, and it wasn't damaged at all. And thank you again.
