[vcf-midatlantic] MICRO (6502) magazine article index by system & recommendation for early reading.

[Richard Cini]

One I can think of is the Target newsletter, 1979-1981, which was an AIM-specific newsletter.

Dates on these possible "pre micro" pieces?

They're totally homebrew with hand-written and typed pages, printed on a
copier.  I think Bill Sudbrink has them.    The logo is hand-drawn.
  I kind of assumed these were already on the web but I did not find any
archives.

Less formally published items must be interesting!  It would be good to
confirm.
What dates?  Rare stuff!
Similarly good reading is from the Dr Dobs early stuff, I recommend
getting ahold of the
1976 "best of" volume, and maybe the next three.  Fun reading what people
were thinking
back then.

I should add MICRO is also known as Micro "the 6502 Journal".  I also have
a run of less formally-published 6502 journals which I assume was what
MICRO evolved from.  I'd have to confirm that.

If anyone is interested and it's not already published WWW-wise, I scanned
the "MICRO index by system" published by MICRO magazine, which ran from
1977 to 1980 or 1981.  I found the index within a stack of MICRO magazines
I have been moving around.
 
This is useful to have because MICRO had a lot of useful technical info
relating to the 6502-based micros of the time period.  It's hard to search
the web for "micro index" - one just gets a lot of nasdaq stock stuff.
I did not check 6502 or other archive sites, this may already be listed
there, but here it is again
