First issue of Compute magazine

Compute was the renamed and re-targeted Pet Gazette. After focussing on the Commodore Pet for some time, the publisher branched out to the whole family of 6502 based machines.

I had an Atari 600xl computer when I was a kid. I used to love the free code Compute offered for my computer. I sure do miss those days. I have started a Facebook group for folks to share there memories of Compute! http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=189027733293

This was another favorite of mine. I stayed with Compute until they no longer covered Commodore systems.

Back in the day, you couldn't go out and purchase mauch software for your Atari/Commadore/Timex/PC. There was no internet. You wrote your own software or purchased Compute! Magazine and typed in the programs they featured. My brother and I had eleven articles published in Compute Magazine. Got $150-$400 for an article. That wasn't back for a highschool kit back in the early 80s.
