I called Compsec and was told that the TRANSACTOR MAGAZINE is out of
business. I then received a conflicting news article in the mail
from Comspec stating :
    "Transactor Magazine has under gone some recent difficulties.
    There have been MAJOR delays getting out both the 64/128 and Amiga
    magazines on time, but Richard Evers assures me the worst is over,
    and they'll be back on regular schedules again soon. Both magazines
    may be available by the time you read this."
I then called Comspec again and they only confirmed what they previously
told me; that indeed the TRANSACTOR MAGAZINE is dead.
In response to those who subscribed to this magazine, I was told
"You're screwed".
    He did mention that the magazine may resurface again..
    possibly under a different name.
