Web site and cover disc

I have been reading PCW every month, for the past few years and I always find the magazine to be very helpful and informative. I have tried using your website a lot but always find it very confusing and I am never able to find what I am looking for.

The search engine appears to search all the VNU sites, and never brings me back what I am looking for. For example I read an article on one of your cover disks last year, explaining how to build your own PC. I want to read this article again, but I cant remember which disk it was on. Instead of searching through 30 or 40 CDs and DVDs I tried searching your website to find out which cover disk had the article on it, but wasn't even able to find anything about any cover disks.

I know that you probably do not want to publish all of each magazine on the PCW website, but it would be very helpful if you could have a section telling us what was in each magazine and what was included on the relevant cover disk. This way readers would not have to search every page of old magazine, and every file on old disks to find what was very good information.

Keep up the good work on the magazine, but just make it easier to find things.

Agree 100%. what is needed is a searchable PCW index - could be shipped on the cd/dvd each month - eg an index to the previous 12 months issues on each CD.
