FamilyPC

FamilyPC

"FamilyPC" was a monthly magazine published from 1994 to 2001. The collaboration between Walt Disney Publishing and Ziff-Davis was a brainchild of Jake Weinbaum. The magazine was notable for its "Family Testers", who were sent the products to review. They rated the products on a 100 point scale. Near the end of the magazine's existence, the concept of Family Testers was foregone, and staffers wrote the reviews, much like other computing magazines.

When FamilyPC was discontinued, Ziff-Davis switched FamilyPC subscribers to PC Magazine.
