TRS-80 Microcomputer News – Expiration Notice
(Radio-Shack).jpg)
Message About End of Magazine In Last Issue …
THIS IS THE LAST ISSUE
OF THE TRS-80 MICROCOMPUTER NEWS
Here’s how to complete your subscription with any one of the TRS-80 oriented computer magazines listed below.
We regret to inform you that publication of the TRS-80 Microcomputer News is being discontinued with this issue.
Our reason for discontinuing publication is that there are currently eight magazines devoted exclusively to TRS-80 products, and doing a very fine job of covering the line. Therefore, continuing the publication of the TRS-80 Microcomputer News became redundant.
We are happy to recommend the magazines listed below. Forthcoming issues of these magazines will keep you informed of new products, practical applications and useful information about our TRS-80 line of computers and software. There will be no additional cost to you.
Next to this page is a postage-paid business reply card. Peel off the address label from this issue of the TRS-80 Microcomputer News and apply to label space on card. The upper right hand portion of the label will show how many issues you have left on your subscription. Check the box next to the magazine you want to receive (check only one box) to have your TRS-80 Microcomputer News subscription transferred (or extended if you already have a subscription); or if you paid for your subscription by check/money order and prefer a refund, please check that box. We must receive your choice by July 31, 1984. So, mail your card right away!
