..^U:DISKOVERY. DISKOVERY: SPREADING
THE WORD.. BY FENDER TUCKER..
AS I REPORTED LAST MONTH, THE.PEOPLE
WHO HAD SUBSCRIPTIONS TO.UPTIME DISK MA
GAZINE ARE NOW GETTING.LOADSTAR INSTEAD.
THAT'S WHAT.USUALLY HAPPENS IN THE PUB
LISHING.BUSINESS: WHEN ONE COMPANY FOLDS
,.ANOTHER TAKES CARE OF THEIR.SUBSCRIPTI
ON OBLIGATIONS... IN CASE YOU'RE WOND
ERING WHO WILL.TAKE CARE OF THE COMMODOR
E MAGAZINE.SUBSCRIBERS, I JUST RECEIVED
WORD.THAT RUN WILL HANDLE IT..... WE'
VE STARTED GETTING LETTERS AND.CRITIQUES
FROM FORMER UPTIME.SUBSCRIBERS WHO RECE
IVED THEIR FIRST.LOADSTAR (ISSUE #62) AN
D I'M PLEASED.TO SAY THEY'RE ALL POSITIV
E. (I HAD.NO DOUBT THEY WOULD BE.)..
ONE THING IS SURPRISING, THOUGH..SOME O
F THEM SAY THEY HAD NEVER HEARD.OF LOADS
TAR UNTIL THEY GOT #62..MAYBE WE NEED TO
ADVERTISE MORE. BUT.WHERE? FOR THE C-
64 THERE ARE ONLY.TWO PAPER MAGAZINES LE
FT IN THE.UNITED STATES, RUN AND COMPUTE
'S.GAZETTE. WE ALREADY ADVERTISE IN RUN
,.AND GAZETTE, FOR REASONS OF THEIR.OWN,
WON'T LET US ADVERTISE.... LOADSTAR
IS IN THE UNIQUE.POSITION OF BEING THE T
YPE OF.PUBLICATION THAT CAN ACTUALLY THR
IVE.IN THE PRESENT COMMODORE MARKET..THE
RE MAY NOT BE MANY C-64'S PRODUCED.AND B
OUGHT ANY MORE, BUT THERE ARE.PLENTY OF
C-64'S BEING USED. AND.JUDGING BY MY OV
ERFLOWING IN-BOX,.THERE ARE PLENTY OF C-
64 PROGRAMS.BEING WRITTEN... WE MAY H
AVE TO RELY ON USER.GROUPS AND WORD-OF-M
OUTH ADVERTISING.TO GET THE MESSAGE OUT
THAT LOADSTAR.IS BETTER THAN EVER AND LO
OKING.FORWARD TO ITS 100TH ISSUE. THAT'
S.WHERE YOU CAN HELP.... IF YOU MEET
SOMEONE WHO HAS A.COMMODORE COMPUTER AND
DOESN'T KNOW.ABOUT LOADSTAR, FEEL FREE
TO TELL HIM.ABOUT THE WEALTH OF PROGRAMS
ON EVERY.MONTHLY ISSUE, THE VERBOSE ART

ES NOW..I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND TRYING TO F
ILE-.COPY THEM, SINCE SOME COPIERS MAKE.
THEM INTO 13-BLOCK FILES. THE.IMPORTANC
E OF THE DIVIDER LINES IS.THAT IT MAKES
IT EASY FOR YOU TO SEE.WHICH FILES TO CO
