Windows Magazine was a monthly magazine for users of the Microsoft Windows operating system. The magazine was based in Manhasset, NY.

History and profile

Windows Magazine was founded in 1990. It was sold to CMP Media in 1991. By 1999, it had a paid circulation of 800,000 and a staff of 45, but its last hardcopy issue was published in August 2002. Before the magazine was shuttered, it created Winmag.com in July 1999. UBM could not monetize a million clicks a month, so the website was shuttered on March 19, 2001. Winmag.com redirects to InformationWeek.com, which does not host any actual winmag.com content.
