Launched in a time of great depression for the Amiga, AI/Echo was originally called Amiga Info. The magazine was first launched during 1996 by Thomas Svensson becoming the only printed magazine in Sweden. It was aimed at the more technical-orientated Amiga user. The second issue of 1997 covered the PowerPC market and interviewed ProDAD. They also covered the growing Amiga clone market.
The final issue saw a change to the magazine with a change of title to reflect the growing Linux coverage. The new AI/Echo magazine published its first (and last) issue in March 1999, but it was not announced in September publication had ceased. Poor circulation was blamed for the magazines death.
