PC Magazine (British magazine)

There are several different versions of PC Magazine. The UK edition was taken over by VNU in 2000 and ceased publication in 2002, although they still maintain a website. The columnists moved to Personal Computer World.

PC Magazine UK's launch edition was dated April 1992, and the launch event, in March of that year, was on a scale that no other technology magazine had experienced before, or has experienced since. It was typical of the way that publisher Ziff-Davis conducted its business over the nine years of its presence in the UK.

Prior to the launch, Ziff-Davis UK, headed by MD David Craver, started recruiting technology journalists and columnists nine months before the launch. Star columnists - they were called Fellows - were Peter Jackson and Guy Kewney. The launch editor was Steve Malone, Executive Editor in charge of Reviews was Jerry Sanders, and Ed Henning created ZD Labs UK, the technical backbone of the reviews.
