I guess that shows that not everyone is looking to get the same out of the magazine...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wonder to what extent your figures are colored by the fact that they derive from web page views? I personally prefer reading things on good old paper, during the coffee break or while commuting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9862959" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
