:''This article is about the original ''Atari User''. For ''New Atari User'' magazine, see ''Page 6''. For Atari User's ST-based spin-off, see ''Atari ST User''.'' ''Atari User'' was a British computer magazine aimed at users of Atari home computers, and published by Database Publications (later known as Europress) between 1985 and 1988. ''Atari User'' was a general-interest computer magazine, containing games reviews as well as type-in programs, tutorials and hardware projects. As with Database's other publications, its appearance was somewhat conservative in comparison with its more games-oriented contemporaries, such as ''Computer and Video Games (C&VG)''. The editorial style was equally restrained and relatively formal. Andre Willey was one of the early editors of this magazine after being promoted from Technical Editor. __NOTOC__ ==Support== Early editions primarily focused on the Atari 8-bit computers (400/800/XL/XE) and the newly launched 16-bit ST range (although they included news of other Atari products such as the relaunched 2600 and 7800 consoles). As the popularity of the ST increased, it was given its own pull-out section called Atari ST User. From the April 1987 issue onwards, ''Atari ST User'' was spun off as a magazine in its own right and went on to outlive its parent by a number of years. Following the split, ''Atari User'' was almost entirely oriented towards the 8-bit computers (with brief 2600 coverage). Until late 1987, when ''Page 6'' magazine became available on newsstands, ''Atari User'' was the only British magazine with dedicated (or even significant) support for the 8-bit Ataris to be sold in shops. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Atari User」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
