Server upgrade on 29/03/2024

We successfully updated our server and everything seems to be working fine.

However, we already noticed one page that used to work that was broken by the update. We have fixed it, but there could be more.

If you run into a problem where a particular page won't load or an action can't complete, please email us (see the Contact Us page under Help, Contact & FAQ).

Given sufficient detail, we should be able to fix such probems as soon as we are made aware of them.

Thank you.

Christmas/New Year office hours, December 2023

Our last day of business for 2023 will be Wednesday, 22nd of December, 2023. We will re-open on Tuesday 2nd of January, 2024.

Our January 2024 issue has been mailed to subscribers and should be delivered just before or just after Christmas. January magazines will be available to purchase in newsagents from Thursday, December 28th.

Orders placed before December 22nd will be sent this year (except for anything that's out of stock). All orders placed after that are likely to be sent in early 2024.

Subscribers can continue to access online content over the break, and self-service orders and renewals will continue to operate.

If you need to contact us over the Christmas break, please send an email and we'll answer it when we can (see the Contact page).

Have a great Christmas and New Year!

Western Australia magazine distribution problems, July 2023

We have been notified that a truck fire in WA has caused some newsagents to have fewer copies of Silicon Chip magazine than they should.

If you can't get Silicon Chip from your regular newsagent, you can order a copy via mail on our website.

Include a note that you couldn't get the magazine at your newsagent and we'll refund the postage charge (ie, you'll only pay the $11.50 cover price).
