Commodore Magazine was the last iteration of Commodore’s official magazine. Before Commodore Magazine, they published two separate publications, one emphasizing business and productivity use and the other emphasizing entertainment and hobby use. This final iteration actually only lasted a couple of years but it is the one I bought so it seems longer to me. It covered the Commodore 64, Commodore 128 and Amiga. The July 1987 issue includes:
