Don't they usually have something consumer oriented on their cover? This is something I don't even recognize, I just know it's something in the guts of the computer. Maybe a better cover for a technical journal?
Great composition, color and content. Lighting is just right. This image and the angle you have selected begs the would-be reader to look inside and find out what it is all about.
There are few cases in this challenge where the photographer's cover shot is better than the real magazine's. Yours is, in fact, much better than what they usually put on their cover. They should hire you.
A nice choice of magazine and subject for this challenge, and very dramatic/pretty. I don't get inside my computer often and must ask what on earth that is, however....
