Avram Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 Does anyone know what happened to the U.K. New Atari User / Page 6 magazine? I subscribed until about 1997 and have not heard of it since. Is there an electronic source similar to the Digital Antic project for this fine magazine? And do any of the subscribers and contributors log onto this website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Magenheimer Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 Well, somewhere around 1999 or 2000 Les Ellingham announced to publish the last 6 issues of Page 6 / NAU (in comp.sys.atari). He reminded everyone to subscribe to get these last issues. And I did, I did, idiot... Er, well, I subscribed for 35 pounds (105 german marks at that time, little more than 50 US dollars). But nothing happened. No more magazines were ever published. Maybe Les did only take the money - I do not know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avram Posted March 9, 2002 Author Share Posted March 9, 2002 It's sad that such a fine magazine died like that and you lost your subscription. I'm still hopeful that an electronic archive of the magazine will appear as so much great writing went into it. I have about 70 percent of the New Atari magazines so, if anyone can suggest a good place to host an archive, let me know and I'll see if I can start this project.

prixon Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 www.newatariuser.co.uk is coming along slowly but there is lots to do yet ... I'm giving it a low profile for the time being! Paul Rixon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
