I find it odd that the subscription price for 9 issues at $69 is more
than 9 issues at the cover price of $4.95 for a total of $44.55.  I
pick it up at the local Computer City on my way home and pay about
$36 for 9 nine issues after 25% discount and 7.75% tax.

The C Users Journal covers both.  I've seen a C++ magazine in the local
bookstore, but can't recall its title.  Dr. Dobb's gives the langauage
good coverage.  Also, Software Development is worth a look.

I have found "C++ Report" (SIGS) to be extremely useful in following
the progress of the language. Subscription is $69/yr. Possibly a
computer oriented bookstore in your area would carry it.

The best (IMHO) magazine about C++ is "The C++ Report".  Stan Lippman
is the editor, and he works very hard to maintain the level of the
articles.   "The C++ Report" is published 10 times per year by SIGS
publications.

Here is a contact address and phone number. Sorry, I have no internet
address that might take subscriptions.

C++ Report
SIGS Publications

It is $69 for 9 issues--a bit steep if you ask me. Direct complaints to
the publisher, Rich Friedman.
