Re: Howard Chu's request for information.

I have found Mapping the Atari, XL/XE 1985 edition, to be an excellent
reference source, as is the Atari XL/XE Users' Guide by Webber Systems.
For Assembly-language programming, the BYTE book by Mark Chasin,
Assembly-Language Programming for the Atari Computers is excellent.

For overall hardware/software understanding of the 800 series, De Re Atari is
hard to beat.

As for magazines, Analog Computing is perhaps the best one for the Atari 8-bi
machines, in my opinion.

I hope this is some help.
