[comp.sys.atari.st] Computer Shopper drops Atari ST coverage

I got the November issue of Computer Shopper yesterday, and I found that the
Atari ST coverage have been dropped.  This comes to no surprise to me since the
ST section was getter thinner and thinner any way.  The reason for dropping the
coverage was:

     - The state of Atari in the US is not healthy, they may be in Europe, but
       certainly not in the U.S..
     - We could not find enough to write about.

They recently dropped Apple II coverage as well for the same reason.

They didn't have much anyway in terms of news.  From what I hear, 
they're considering dropping Amiga and Mac as well to become an MS-DOS
mag. (Like they really aren't already. :^)
