Amstrad CU

Amstrad Computer User was the official magazine for the Amstrad CPC series of 8-bit home computers. This monthly publication, usually referred to as ACU by its readers, concentrated more on the hardware and technical side of the Amstrad range, although it had a small dedicated games section as well. ACU ran from August 1984 to May 1992, producing 90 issues in total. Originally a bi-monthly Amstrad User's club newsletter titled CPC464 User, it was renamed to Amstrad Computer User when the CPC664 was released in 1985. Its successor was CPC Attack, which was launched in June 1992.
