Re: software reviews

Because Jamie, the editor of The Leisure Lab, is terribly, terribly keen.

Re: software reviews

i am sure this has been asked before but what exactly is the relationship between the leasure lab and WHF that allows the editor of the leisure lab to post blogs on the WHF website?

Re: software reviews

As you may have noticed, we and Stuff produce The Leisure Lab in association with Samsung, which is why you'll find WHFSV staffers cropping up presenting reviews.

Not really: The Leisure Lab clearly says "with verdicts from Stuff and What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" at the top, and we also publish Gramophone, so it's very simple.

No, don't understand that bit at all.

Re: software reviews

And there's us thinking you'd all appreciate some more software reviews, other than the handful of small ones we do in the mag each month....

Re: software reviews

This is one of those where are the boundaries things isnt it? ("no al, not til you made it so" i hear you crylol).

"software" to me means useful apps for whatever purpose, and id welcome reviews of such. games? games? ive got a ball on a string, thanks Wink and i never lose the ball, as its atatched to a string, which in turn is attached to a bat!

but i should probably remember that im not in the what id like to see in the mag section.

sorry. verbal diorh...diarrhe...ah, forgeddit!
