TheNameOfTheGame Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) Nice! I love reading articles like that about how Ataris were used in work environments. I might be the only one, but I enjoy reading the advertisements too lol. Seeing all the product announcements and items for sale remind me of the old days when buying the new NVDI or StraightFax! from the Toad catalog was the best thing in the world. ?

They went into '96 - one of the issues I sent was: Vol. 16 No. 3 May/June 1996 Looks like they updated their list. I think they're lurking here. ? Well, there was a slight error in that they linked Jan/Feb 1996 wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctorclu Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I was wondering about the Dal-ACE issues, but all of this is cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just didn't post here that I had posted the last of them. There was one issue I some how missed that was already up although that was true with a couple of other ones but I re-scanned those because the scans were not so great. The magazines are all packaged up. I just got to get to the post office. I will try to get there tomorrow morning. I will let you know when they are shipped. https://archive.org/details/@allan52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've scanned a few manuals and things here and there and I don't care what anyone says, it is T E D I O U S ! So I'll echo what everyone else is saying - "Thanks much!". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Undo Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 On 5/21/2020 at 7:29 PM, Allan said: Eventually I will get one of the people over at Archive.org to put all the Current Notes into one section (as well as the other Atari magazines) The more commercial Atari magazines have their section. Besides @Allan effort uploading Current Notes to Archive.org (thanks again, man!!!) there are more CN issues uploaded to archive.org by the Atari historian Kay @Savetz(host of the ANTIC 8-bit podcast) https://archive.org/details/@savetz and Scott Stilphens (the man behind ataricompendium.com) https://archive.org/details/@scottithgames As Allan said, it would be great to have all the Current Notes into one section on archive.org. Meanwhile, there is a compilation of all these Current Notes issues here: http://www.ataricompendium.com/archives/magazines/current_notes/current_notes.html, although the following uploads by Allan are not still registered in the page: MARCH 1986: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-6-number-2-march-1986 APRIL 1990: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-10-number-3-april-1990 JUNE 1990: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-10-number-5-june-1990 SEPTEMBER 1990: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-10-number-7-september-1990 NOVEMBER 1990: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-10-number-9-november-1990 DECEMBER 1990: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-10-number-10-december-1990 MARCH 1991: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-11-number-2-march-1991 DECEMBER 1991: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-11-number-10-december-1991 JUNE/JULY 1994: https://archive.org/details/current-notes-volume-14-number-5-june-july-1994/mode/2up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaddog Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Wow, thanks! I'm going through the '86-'88 issues to get a better idea on what was happening with Atari Corp. during those trying years. Even as a club newsletter, they had a "Secret Sunnyvale Corespondant" who spilled the beans on what's going on the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMaddog Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Thank you to everyone involved! I've always wanted to read the "new" CN issues from '95/96...even if they were designed more like web pages than traditional magazines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zap! Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Any idea how I can download Multi Game for the ST? It's 5 games in one. I had it on an old disk but the only thing that remains is the disk and label. Doing a Google search brought me just one result, this: https://archive.org/stream/current-notes-volume-15-number-1-january-february-1995/Current_Notes_Volume_15_Number_1_January_February_1995_djvu.txt Quote #647: Bobble; Ms.Pac; MultiGam (Worm, Firecop, Mega- pede, Breakout, Setrys) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
