No.  Actually the magazine was doing quite well.  The only problem we had
was staff -- we are trying to do an awful lot with few people, so the folks
involved in the magazine kept getting pulled into other tasks, to the
detriment of the magazine's schedule.

Solution: we hired David Ahl and Betsy Staples, both formerly of Creative
Computing, and let them set up shop back in Morris Plains, NJ.  We have
given them enough corporate backing to put together a real staff whose sole
duty is the magazine.  The Explorer will continue to be Atari's voice, and
will be stonger due to more attention devoted to it.

Look for the first issue under Ah/ & Staples in July, and bimonthly for the
next while.  1987 -- monthly, if ahl goes well.
