1 out of 5 stars Just another rag.   May 14, 2008
This mag is typical in that it has no meat to chew on.
If you like reviews, stories, what the latest robotics contest is and who won it, or what the newest robot kit/toy is then by all means this rag is for you.
I read one issue from cover to cover(something I don't normally do)and found nothing of use or importance to me as someone is just getting into robotics and trying to learn what is involved in making them.
What I expected to find were maybe some programing tips, electronic circuits, how to, DIY, and maybe a project or two. Well this rag has none of that.
Also it's $24.95 which I think is a lot for a bi-monthly that hasn't got much to offer.
In short if you are looking to learn about and build your own robots you should avoid this magazine.
