ANALOG Computing was an American computer magazine devoted to Atari 8-bit computers. It was published from 1981 until 1989. In addition to reviews and tutorials, ANALOG printed multiple programs in each issue for users to type in. Almost every issue included a machine language video game—as opposed to Atari BASIC—which were uncommon in competing magazines. Such games were accompanied by the assembly language source code. ANALOG also sold commercial games, two books of type-in software, and access to a custom bulletin-board system. After the Atari ST was released, coverage of the new systems moved to an ST-Log section of the magazine before spinning off into a separate publication under the ST-Log name.
The title began as an acronym for Atari Newsletter And Lots Of Games, which was only spelled out in the first two issues. Originally the title as printed on the cover was A.N.A.L.O.G. 400/800 Magazine, but starting with the sixth issue it was shortened to A.N.A.L.O.G. Computing.[2] Though the dots remained in the logo, over time it became ANALOG or ANALOG Computing inside the magazine.
The program listings were covered under the magazine's copyright protections, and users were granted the right to type them into their computer for personal use, so long as they were not sold or copied.[3]
