Atari Video Club Officially Opens News Stand
For Immediate Release:
October 18th, 2004:
The Atari Video Club is proud to announce The Grand Opening of the AVC News
Stand.
Dan Iacovelli, AVC/JCU Chairperson, started opening the news stand back in June
of 2004 with the Final Jagfest issue, and later added the other 6 six Jagfest
issues to the news stand every 10th day. The news stand is actually a reworked
version of the old back issue pages from AVC online the clubs website (which is
still accessible but only through the news stand).
The News Stand has images from the covers from the issues as well as full
descriptions of the issues, plus an extra feature to the news stand is that fest
issues are not only available in normal print versions (as they have been in the
past) as well as in PDF form but will also be available at cafepress.com.
Currently as of this writing only the Jagfest issues are listed on the news
stand as well as the programs from our computer and video game trade show The
Video Game Summit (the programs are only available thru Cafepress.com (the 2004
program is currently at the VGS shop at cafepress.com
(http://www.cafepress.com/VGS) while the 2003 program is listed at AVC newsstand
at cafepress.com (http://www.cafepress.com/avcnews)
(this is where all the jagfest issues are at as well)).
AVC also announces plans for a new magazine only to be available thru
cafepress.com To be entitled "Into The Zone". This magazine is actually a
combination of 2 regular Atari Zone issues (Regular issues are
uaslly 12 pages long). Regular Atari Zone issues will still be available in
normal print and PDF forms) The first set of "Into The Zone" issues will
actually come from the back issues of the Atari Zone (while there are a few back
issues that are more 12 pages long they won't be combined but will still
be called "Into The Zone" for the cafepress edition (the normal version will be
called "the Atari Zone").
"Into The Zone" is most likely to debut some time early next year (it won't be
available by subscription though but the Atari zone issues will still be)
The AVC News Stand can be viewed by going to AVC Online
(http://avc.atari-users.net) and clicking on the button that will take you to
news stand site.
