These are the two I tend to read as well. I like both magazines, though I
think they serve different purposes. ST Applications is oriented toward
programmers and users, and provides useful advice/tips to both. START is
centered around the disk that comes with each issue. ST Applications tends
to review things more or less impartially, whereas START has a definite
bias toward giving a favorable review (in my opinion) -- also the new section
in ST Applications called ST Business seems to be a little more pro-Atari than
pro-reader (again, only my opinion). Both magazines provide lots of useful
information for Atari ST owners.
