I have been wondering about this point as well because, as a foreign
person (i am French), i was a bit disapointed to see the discrepancies
between the French market and the Irish one. We have so far around 6
magazines on linux, which are all targeting a specific audience. I would
say : 2 for beginners, 2 for medium users, 1 for advanced users and 1
for penguins in suits (taking over linux mag's expression :)
Maybe some others in this list might do better than me talking about
analysing the market but I do hope we'll see more magazines with good
content in the future.
