Popular Computing Weekly is a magazine that was published weekly in the U.K. Weekly! I am not aware of any computer magazines being published that often in the U.S. at that time. That would have been pretty neat, especialy at less than $1. Of course, I believe this was cheaper newspaper vs. glossy magazine stock but still…
