Commodore Power/Play

Commodore Power/Play was one of a pair of computer magazines published by Commodore Business Machines in the United States in support of their 8-bit home computer lines of the 1980s. The other was called "Commodore Interface", changed to just "Commodore" in 1981, "Commodore Microcomputer" in 1983, and finally to "Commodore Microcomputers" in 1984 and for the rest of its run. The two magazines were published on an alternating, bimonthly schedule.
History and profile.
"Power/Play" was started in 1982 a quarterly publication. The magazine was targeted at the home computer user, emphasizing video games, educational and hobbyist uses of the Commodore 64/128 and Commodore VIC-20 models. "Commodore Microcomputers" initially served Commodore's business customers using the PET and CBM lines but as the business market segments standardized on CP/M and later MS-DOS, the coverage of the two magazines essentially overlapped, until the November 1986 issue, when both magazines were switched from a bi-monthly to a monthly schedule and retitled "Commodore Magazine".
