Announcing major news for Atari ST. users:
---------- ----- ---- --- ----- --- ------
COMPUTE!'s Atari ST disk and magazine - A bimonthly magazine
devoted exclusively to Atari ST enthusiasts that includes a disk
containing all of the programs found in each issue.
Atari has proven the pessimists wrong. The Atari 520ST and 1040ST
have become the bestsellers among the new generation of personal
computers. Both are breakthroughs in price and performance, and
the community of ST owners is growing by thousands each month.
That's one reason why COMPUTE! Publications is announcing a new
magazine specially designed for ST users. At the same time, we
recognize that the power of the ST presents a unique challenge to
magazines which publish program listings. That's why we're
including a 3 1/2-inch disk that contains every program found in
each issue -- ready to load and run. No more typing!
Here's what you'll get in every issue of COMPUTE!'s Atari ST Disk
& Magazine:
o Top-quality programs. Utilities, Games, Educational
programs for youngsters. Application programs for home and
business. And since all the programs will be on disk, there are
few limitations on length or languages. A typical disk might
contain an elaborate adventure game written in BASIC, a
programming utility written in machine language, a dazzling
graphics demo in compiled Pascal, and a useful home or business
application written in Forth or C.
o Neochrome of the Month. Take a look at what computer
artists are doing with the Atari ST. Each issue's disk contains a
NEOchrome picture file ready for you to load and admire. Are you
an artist yourself? Send us a picture of your own, and we'll pay
you if it's published.
o Regular columns. If you're a programmer -- or would like
to be -- you'll love our columns on ST programming techniques and
the C language. Or check out our column on the latest events and
happenings throughout the ST community. Or send your questions
and helpful hints to our Reader's Feedback column.
o Reviews. Honest evaluations of the latest software and
hardware for the Atari ST.
o News & Products. A comprehensive listing of the newest
releases for your ST.
o And more: Interviews with ST newsmakers, reports on the
latest industry trade shows, and overviews of significant new
product introductions.
Starting with the October issue (available September 1),
COMPUTE!'s Atari ST Disk & Magazine will be found on newsstands
nationwide for only $12.95 per copy, including disk. Or it can be
delivered directly to your mailbox six time a year for only
$59.95 -- a savings of over 20 percent.
