Hello... I've had an 800XL for a few months now, and I'm really
getting discouraged in my attempts to find documentation and
all around News type stuff. The local bookstores etc. only seem
to carry Compute and Antic, and only occasionally. I'll probably
subscribe to one or the other, or both, but I was wondering about
any other magazines that were around. Also, if anyone has a supply
of the Compute's Atari guides, I'd be interested in finding them
as well. I saw an add in an issue from last year showing them
on "inventory reduction sale" and I don't think they're available
locally any more.

So, it all boils down to a simple request for recommendations...
Please post your favorite sources of Atari info & programs,
as well as maybe a brief comment on why it's good. I generally
prefer a magazine well stocked with program listings & technical
articles, as well as a fair amount of ads... Thanks in advance.
