Personally, I feel that if "ApeInc" wants to distribute their magazine
on the USENET, then *they* should trim the ads, and do so themselves.
By propagating their newsletter, you are giving them more credence
than they deserve.  I have read several "issues" now, and it is clear
that they are expressing lots of personal opinion, with very little
(if any) independent investigation or research to corroborate.  Much
of the factual information they publish is available elsewhere, in
places such as the Atari Forums on Compuserve, the Atari Roundtables
on GEnie, in printed magazines such as STart, STLog, etc.

So, bottom line, if it's a question of ads or no ZMAG, I won't miss
it.
