Description
Commodore User Magazine complete June 1983 - February 1990
Commodore User (usually known as just 'CU') was a long-running UK magazine that focussed mainly on the Commodore 64 and latterly the Amiga. Initially covering the more serious aspects of the C64 platform, CU introduced games coverage after the first year, and this became the predominant feature for the rest of the magazine's run. CU quietly dropped it's C64 coverage to become CU Amiga in 1990 (the complete CU Amiga archive is also available as a separate download - please see RetroPDFs for more information). These PDFs are the compiled collections of page scans available on public Torrent trackers. They've been OCR'd to allow text searching and copying - this should prove very useful for the retro archivist who'd like to have their own local searchable archive. They look great on most PDF readers, including the iPad. The OCR software has increased the file size slightly, and some issues haven't OCR'd as well as others, due to the layout and fonts used. More OCR'd mags will be periodically available - please check http://retropdfs.wordpress.com (or just Google "RetroPDFs") for more information. 90's style "greets" to anyone formally or currently involved in the Amiga scene, especially Pazza, Mic Flair, Violator, Denzil, Tango, Fat Will, mUb and Maximan, and anyone else who read or wrote for LSD Grapevine.
