    It is all very strange - I was waiting 5 weeks for packaging from the UK... that is only 250 miles across the Irish Sea 😄  Re your Microzeit order - I go an e-mail from Mircozeit a few weeks ago about slow mail delivery, but that is a long time for sure.  The German postal system is definately slower these last few months, I hope you get it soon.

    Thank you DarkLord ☺️

     

    FYI for those who have ordered from AA - books are slowly getting through the postal system, but Europe is worst effected because flights and capacity are down and there is still a backlog from Christmas, this is what I have been told from Irish Post (An Post).  There is, in some case about a 3-4 week delay in some countries (eg, orders from Germany from the 5th January have been arriving in the last week or two), but USA post (ie, post heading from Ireland west to the US) seems to be moving better, but delivery is different state to state.  I was surprised to see some CA post arriving within 2-3 weeks, so that is an improvement 😄  Be patient, it will get there!

    I got the paperback version a few weeks ago, and I'm about a 1/4 of the way through.  It's obviously laser focused on the design philosophy of the cabinets and artwork with some interesting quotes from such Atari design greats like Cheng, Takaichi, Querio etc., and input from many inside Atari such as Bushnell, Alcorn etc.  This is (so far) a great insight into the design of every aspect of an Atari cab from Pong up.  I'm glad I picked this up, and if you have any interest in Atari's arcade ancestry, this should be on your book shelf.

    I ordered 2 copies. Unfortunately, I was unable to figure out a way to order

    more than 1 at a time, so I had to order *twice*.

     

    Please send both my orders as one, to save shipping and handling. Thanks.

     

    Thanks for the order @DarkLord - I received your reply to my e-mail and we are good to go.  I've got the new book set-up for one order per customer right now due to demand, but contact me directly for better shipping prices for more than 2 copies anytime.

    Very sad. I only got to meet Curt a few times but I enjoyed the little time I got to spend with him. Last time I saw him was at last year's VCF East. He brought a fantastic Atari display.

    Lovely photo, he was in his element there!  I remember him putting that display together in his garage, you can tell how proud he is of it.

    To celebrate the 35th Birthday of our beloved Atari ST, I have put together a special commemorative book which should be available late September.  I will not let this date pass without a proper celebration this year!  I'll put an official teaser online soon and some further information.

     

    There is also a new Goodie Pack available on the website which helps support my current and future projects - give and you shall receive, I don't want donations!  All profit goes into my "print" fund :)

     

    Thanks again for the support and to everybody who purchased We Love Atari, the feedback made it all worthwhile believe me.

     

    Stay safe,

    Hello,

     

    Just a quick update on a special edition book celebrating the 35th Anniversary of the Atari ST.  I'm just putting the final touches to it now, and should be available in late September.

     

    If you want to support this book and possibly one or two future projects on the drawing board, please consider purchasing a Goodie Pack at the https://zafinnbooks.com
