From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ST Amiga Format
was a computer
magazine
that covered the
Atari ST
and
Amiga
computers. It was published by
Future plc
to cover the ever growing market for the, then-new, 16-bit home computers. Issues were equally balanced with coverage for both
Amiga
and
Atari ST
systems. Issue 1 included a main feature 'ST or Amiga? The Choice is Yours', where the pros and cons for each machine was examined.
ST Amiga Format
often included a
floppy disk
mounted on the cover, which used a unique
dual format
filesystem that could be read by both the Amiga and ST. The disks included game demos, software utilities, etc.
Regular features included tutorials (on both Amiga and ST), Gamebuster, Gold Dust (a rumours section), Desktop (tips and technical guide for the ST), Workbench (tips and technical guide for the Amiga), Escape Sequence (last page) and the usual news and letters pages.
Issue 13 (July 1989) was the last issue under the dual format. The sale of sister magazine
ACE
freed up the staff necessary to split the magazine into two separate titles.
ST Format
and
Amiga Format
were launched.
