Re: Mail Order for 8-bit software

   I like Software Discounters of America.  At one time they didn't
carry any software with the Atari brand name and they're not advertising
Atari brand titles in their latest magazine ads but they have lots of
other software and some hardware as well.  I usually get all excited
about my Atari 800 every December and order a bunch of games for
Christmas.  I've never had any problems with SDA.  Order line:
1-800-225-7638, free shipping over $100, no surcharge for
VISA/MasterCard.

   Another fun place is B&C ComputerVisions.  They carry closeouts, weird
hardware, and lots of Atari memories (not RAM, history).  Their prices
on normal software are not all that great.  I haven't actually ordered
mail order although I know someone who has.  Instead, I showed up in
person and had a great time looking over all the 8-bit stuff and got
several games and some reconditioned Atari joy sticks (and avoided the
temptation to buy the Newell Floating Point ROMS for my 800).  This
place is a must-see for Atari nerds on business trips to Santa Clara,
CA.
