One of the most amazing articles I have read was in Computer Shopper
where the majority of the machines they received for review were
flawed.  Either parts were missing or incorrectly attached - and they
reported on machine after machine and its problems.  It was so bad
they even wrote an editorial.  they are one of the few pubications
that would print something like that, as far as I can see.  Even so I
am amazed at how little play is given to the flaws in various hardware
components in print.  for example the driver problems with Diamond
video cards and Windows 95.  Anyone know of a technical magazine that
covers hardware and software in depth?
