Are you referring to web magazine, or a hard copy periodical?

We'll eventually have news, hardware reviews and generally more content on the website. Having a frontpage, sorta like they have a TechPowerUp would be cool. A magazine? No.

yeah a front page would do well but a full on magazine i don't think that would turn out so good. It would be cool though

Tahd be sick but i dont think it has the content, userbase, finances and much more to release a magazine.

Thatd be amazing though. But theres too much compition i'd imagine. There'd needto be something unique to make it better tha PCWorld in orderfor people to buy it.

there would never ever be a print magazine, print is a dying media, and yes there are no resources to ever do that. But a tech blog, yes, one of those is on the cards.

A tech blog would be nice it would be good to see a printed mag but would cost much and not be very profitable
