A recently promoted and relocated Commodore executive offered Commodore 64 and 128 users reassurance, even in the face of the Amiga 2000 and 500 (especially the cheaper 500), that the company’s 8-bit computers would be a part of its business plan into the 1990s in this issue.

While the “desktop publishing” projects suggested in this issue might not have been as elaborate by those generated by more expensive computers, they were something more to do with a Commodore 64.

The repackaged Commodore 64C, along with a repackaged standard floppy disk drive, a 3.5-inch floppy drive, and an improved monitor to show off the bundled GEOS software, all featured on this issue’s cover. More new hardware from Commodore was featured inside, with the editorial explaining Thomas Rattigan had replaced Marshall Smith as the company’s president and chief executive officer to turn things around (by, among other things, bumping up the price of the 64C.)
