My definition of a good magazine is one where I read half or more of the articles. Being in the IT industry I receive a dozen or so IT magazines a month. From time to time they all contain something worth reading but mostly they are just fluffy marketing. Only a few are consistently good, Queue is one of the good ones. I just finished reading the September issue. They have a very good collection of articles around multiprocessors, including one from our own Richard. If you subscribe to queue this month's edition is excellent - read it now! If you don't it looks like the website lags by one issue so the September 2005 issue should be online in about 3 weeks - read it then.
