Bonjour
We're delighted to welcome readers of the French STraTOS magazine
readers to their FREE CD-ROM copy of Atari Computing, I hope you enjoy
it as much as our paying customers, please do feel free to get involved.
If you're reading the printed Atari Computing magazine you'll be
wondering what on earth is going on so please turn to page 17 where all
is revealed...
I'm sure many of you are considering whether to upgrade your Atari
hardware or buy a different machine and take the emulation route and in
this issue we cover some of the options.
If you're considering changing platforms to play games have you
considered upgrading your ST, or buying a Falcon, Milan, BRhenix or Hades
and buying a dedicated games machine - you'll probably have more fun.
We have a review of the groundbreaking Magnum RAM upgrade which,
combined with an accelerator, can give any ST a new lease of life.
Falcon owners feeling the need for more speed can check out the CENTurbo
accelerator and take another look at our Nemesis review in AC#3 - or
splash out on an AfterBurner.
Atari ST emulators are popping up everywhere offering access to sexy
colour displays, CD-ROMs and other peripherals in exchange for a loss of
compatibility and varying degrees of hassle. This issue we take a look
at the PaCifiST Atari emulator designed to bring classic Atari gaming
action to the PC platform!
Finally, I'd like to express my sadness AtariPhile 5 will be the final
issue. I looked forward to, and enjoyed, every issue so thanks guys!
I'll take this opportunity to invite all former AtariPhile contributors
to send their contributions to Atari Computing instead!
