réf. 50913Paris: J. Povolozky 1921. Octavo 18.5 × 13.5 cm. Original decorative wrappers pasted over blind self-wrappers as issued; 8 pp. Wrappers illustrated with a pochoir pattern black and silver dots on yellow stock. Numerous small vignettes in the text.

It is nearly impossible to provide a comprehensive flavor for this monthly magazine's contents in today's computer terms. These magazines go back to an era when the internet as we know it wasn't access to shared online data was through free local or costly long-distance bulletin boards modems supported 45.5-300 and if you were lucky 1200 baud speeds and information about what was happening in the personal computer field was pretty fragmented. Much of the discovery learning happened in local user groups who shared ideas enthusiasms hacks and techniques among themselves. Computers were new and exciting. Businesses providing support new software and hardware and supplies were blinking into existence every day all over the country as this new phenomenon took hold of everyone's imagination and blinking out just as quickly if they didn't stock the right stuff. It was a heady time to be a techie. What follows is a fairly detailed look at the contents of the first issue in this grouping Oct 1983 to give you a flavor of what they are. The production values of both articles and advertisements varies wildly throughout. It is quite fun having lived through this time period myself to recognize certain dot-matrix printers amateur layout techniques and references to computers I've not seen in many many years. The issue explains that "we are now in a combined format with CMTUG and M3G. This did not happen overnight! The planning began last May 1982 after the Computer Faire. We first formed the Michigan Computer Consortium MC2. This was intended as an umbrella organization for any existing club that wanted to join. The two primary functions of this umbrella are to provide a basis for planning the next Computer Faire and to share a bulk email permit. In an effort to bring about more cooperation between clubs and to disseminate additional information about computers it was decided that the three founding members of MC2 would move toward the production of a joint newsletter. Last month Sept 1983 CMTUG and M3G produced a joint newsletter. This month you will note that CHAOS has joined this great effort. It should be noted that each club has the option of printing their own newsletter at any given time if this newsletter ceases to meet the needs of its members." The President's Report by Ike Hudson goes on to discuss the mechanics of needing articles from member clubs the suggested editorial / submission process etc. Contents include attempts much like speculation on Apple computers today to predict what Atari's next move is and notes that CP/M "is coming soon from Atari" and talks about the Atari 400 through 1400XL. It also includes a 2 1/2 page article introducing word processing reports on a fundraising auction hardware reviews Seikosha AT-100/GP-100 printer The Atari-Forum a new tollfree CHAOS dial-up bulletin board "What is a computer Part III" hacking a floppy disk drive to fix a warping problem and much else including a number of pages of advertising. TARICON 83 has a full page ad: "The largest Atari only computer show ever held" and billed as the "First Major Consumer Computer Convention Devoted Exclusively to Atari Home Computeres and related Support Products." with some 50 exhibit booths and 50 seminars and workshops. In addition to Atari news there is TRS-80 Heath/Zenith and other content. One issue we looked at discussed networking. One of the most prevalent ones Sneakernet. Yes you guessed it. Taking diskettes machine to machine to transfer data. Another lists Current Versions of Apple II software as of Jan 1987. Apple LUG News. Claris tackles a game plan. AppleFest '87. A writer's tool 2 page review of new software from Optimized Systems Software Inc OSS. OSIG : Patching Wordstar. An explanation of "In the Public Domain" and what it means. You get the idea. Lots of great history. We've been dealing in computer related material for years and this is one of the few chances we've had to purchase this sort of early computer group newsletter. While many advertisers remain over the timespan covered the contents change significantly and are a great source of material for anyone studying this time period in personal computers.
