The Digital Antic Project (
http://www.atarimagazines.com) is proud to
announce that the full text of every issue of Antic Magazine is now
available on the Web. Devoted to the Atari 8-bit and ST computers, Antic
magazine published 88 issues from April 1982 through July 1990.
This site launched with two issues on July 27, 1996. More than four years
later, the project's volunteers uploaded the final issue. The site includes
1,700 articles, 2,400 images, and 1,600 downloadable program files, using
more than 100 MB of disk space. More than 30 volunteers have contributed
time to the project.
Although the Digital Antic Project has reached an important milestone, the
effort is far from over. The volunteers have already begun digitizing two
more magazines published by Antic Publishing: STart, which focuses on Atari
ST computers; and Antic Amiga Plus, which focuses on the Amiga platform.
