Would you consider putting up a sample PDF, or maybe making issue #1 free? I'll happily pay you if I'm able to flip through and see if I like it, but I'm not ready to make a blind purchase.

Ok, this is awesome. I love the angle of reporting on stuff other than video games and computers (of course I never get sick of those either :) ) Go go school laser printer!
