After nearly eighteen months of hard reviewing, the
AMTIX team is disbanding - and the magazine you
have come to know and love will be no more. This is
the last issue of AMTIX!
Our publishers, Newsfield, are passing the title on to
Database Publications who plan to incorporate the
best features of AMTIX! in their magazine, COMPUT-
ING WITH THE AMSTRAD.
As we go to press, the handover is being finalised,
and you can rest assured the May issue of COMPUT-
ING WITH THE AMSTRAD will contain some familiar
headings, the same devoted approach to analysing
the latest games software - and who knows? You may
well find some familiar faces there too ...
It's out on April 1st (honest). Make sure you catch it!
Meanwhile, it's goodbye from all of us - Malcolm,
Richard, Massimo, Tony and Saffron - for the mean-
time.
