I kinda liked the  "ST World"  that my dealer used to carry, but he
stopped carrying it a couple of months before he folded.  :-(   
Did the newspaper fold too?  Or did the go out of business becuase my
dealer no longer carried them?  Or was it the other way around?    ;-)

I wanted to receive the newsletter still, but not knowing if they still
existed, I wrote to them in Oregon.  I have had no reply. I fear that
they are dead.

They were good, I thought, at getting news out early. I found
articles about about "IDRIS" (they spelled it IRDIS) and about the 2.5
Meg memory upgrade called "DoubleThink Plus" long before folks on this
net chewed over these subjects.

This little rag was published in an unheard of place called Roseburg,
Oregon.  How they got their news, I do not know.

Does anybody know if they still exist?
