"Love your magazine. Worth every penny... Thanks!" -- from linuxtidbits via Twitter
"Linux Pro Magazine has been my first and best resource for up-to-date information and a continual educational resource. I am a 11-year Linux 'veteran' and have read many magazines, but Linux Pro Magazine is able to transcend across all knowledge boundaries to provide the kind of information that all Linux users find useful, might I even say required in this overly competitive IT world. Thank you to Linux Pro Magazine and all of the staff for putting out such a great resource." -- from Patrick Swartz via email
