Star Trek magazine Aventine article

[RAMA]

Got this issue late...WOW, a fairly comprehensive article with lots of new visual concepts and artwork of the Aventine, plus a pull-out. What a beautiful ship! Highly recommend this issue...or get the online version..

I look forward to more ship coverage coming down the pike.

RAMA, we don't really allow links to sales and that sort of thing. I know you meant well. I removed the link, but I'm leaving this open for discussion on the Aventine issue.

What are the rules about posting information from the magazine article (vital ship stats, etc)?

I know I sound like your TV salesman sidekick right now, but [home shopping host voice]tell me, RAMA, is this wonderful magazine available for digital distribution outside the US as well[/home shopping host voice]?

Those are fine. Just nothing about actually buying and selling stuff, as the board isn't set up for such enterprises.

Hmmmm ok yeah I wasn't really thinking about the buying part, its just a little cool to me that you can get digital copies of mags and books these days (especially for those who have to travel to specialty stores, since these things arent on newsstands anymore) and I wanted people to know its available.

Digital media is the greatest thing since the internet. I hardly buy books/magazines any more, since I can just download them to my laptop and take them everywhere!

Mass figure seems a tad low, though.
