Smiths have stocked Linux Magazine and LxF for years. Last time I looked, 
there was a newcomer on the shelf too, I don't remember what it was called.

The trouble is, the price of these magazines. At 4.99 each or more, when you 
usually are not interested in the cover CDs, they're rarely worth the money.
