+Allan Posted February 20, 2023 Author Share Posted February 20, 2023 Here are two more issues of Atari 8-bit and ST articles from Computer Shopper. https://archive.org/details/computer-shopper-september-1988-vol-8-num-9-atari-articles/mode/2up https://archive.org/details/computer-shopper-may-1988-vol-8-num-5-atari-articles/mode/2up The May issues had severe damage but you can still read it. No listings in these issues. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 Here is the last one I have. Hopefully more will show up soon. Again, no program listings but valuable information non the less. https://archive.org/details/computer-shopper-august-1989-vol-9-num-8-atari-articles/page/n7/mode/2up 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.atarimania.com Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Do you still have all the magazines? If so, could you scan the Atari classifieds for each one? Jason Scott just archived the entire February 1986 issue and I noticed there are dedicated ads for all computers in that section. As you can see, there are references to a number of unknown Atari programs so we're missing out on a lot of precious information: https://archive.org/details/computer-shopper-february-1986/page/226/mode/2up If you can, it would also be great to check the ads in the "Computer Shopper Mart" part. You probably won't find a lot of Atari material but I did see this one so it's not impossible: Cart Clone Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Allan Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share Posted October 21, 2023 https://archive.org/details/computer-shopper-oct-87-vol-7-no-10-atari-articles Here is another issue. It has a BASIC listing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Now I'm madly curious about the "Timex Sinclair Survival Guide". There was a North American scene for the ZX81 or 1000 in 1987? What? And what is wrong with the IIGS? Enquiring minds want to know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 Here is another issue, April, 1989. https://archive.org/details/computer-shopper-april-1989-vol-9-num-4-atari-articles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall writing a review of Spectrum 512 for Computer Shopper...my only piece for them (I mostly wrote for ST-Log), but for the life of me I can't remember what issue is was in! Probably some time in 1988. Finally found it. March, 1988. I am scanning it now. Will post soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.atarimania.com Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Still no classifieds? I know the issues are a bitch to scan but it's usually just one page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just uploaded a new PDF with the missing pages. It may take a couple of hours to show up.
