The second issue of Model Railroad Hobbyist is now available for download at http://model-railroad-hobbyist.com
We believe we've successfully corrected the problems that were experienced with Issue 1 early on -
- a high-bandwidth server to prevent a large number of downloads from crashing it,
- a "LITE" (16MB) version that is tested to run under MACs (even using Preview), PCs and Linux with the same content as the PREMIUM version - and downloads a lot faster
- more compatible video formats for non-PC readers.
The PREMIUM (99MB) version includes all the rich media content embedded so that after you download it, you don't need an internet connection to view everything in the magazine. It also features higher-resolution photos, allowing you to zoom in on the photos up to 200% with little or no pixelation.
