I hope this is just idle "rumor talk", intended mostly in jest... I know both
Lee Pappas, publisher of ANALOG, and Clay Walnum, Editor, and I'm sure both
of them would be dismayed to hear this... 

They've both said that LFP invested enough money into the magazine that any
thought of its being a "tax writeoff" was just silly. Everyone tried to make
it a success, but there was just no way to pay the bills in the US Atari
marketplace...
