iX magazine Launches English Test Issue

An anonymous reader writes "The German iX magazine is probably the one targeting the most knowledgable audience of system administrators and 'IT professionals.' They focus on Linux, UNIX and Windows NT. For all those who are interested in the magazine but don't understand German, there's now a free English pilot issue available online."

Question of target...

...probably the one targeting the most knowledgable audience of system administrators and 'IT professionals.'

I guess the person who submitted this has never seen a copy of SysAdmin magazine.

Seriously, from everything I've always heard about this magazine, I was expecting something more along the lines of SysAdmin... it turns out a better comparison would be InfoWorld, a wonderful magazine, but a considerably different market.

SysAmin is targeted at the hardcore system administrator and system architects, where InforWorld (and possibly iX) appear to be more suited for IT managers _as_well_as_ system administrators and system architects.

Either way you look at it, I applaud their willingness to finally produce an english language version... I'm sure it will be very popular!
I, for one, will be reading it.
