Your Computer was a British multi-platform magazine published monthly from 1981 to 1988. [[Category:CPC Press]]
It contains some info about the early CPC history - for example, Your Computer was a CPC464 preview in British multi-platform magazine published monthly from 1981 to 1988 covering the May 1984 issue (a month before range of home microcomputers along the CPC464 way. Your Computer was launched in June 1984) a spin- which isn't found in CPC-specific magazines like off from the British magazine [[Amstrad Computer UserPractical Computing]] (. In early 1987 they starting focusing on the PC and Mac markets and got rid of type-ins etc which also lost a lot of readers. Within a year the magazine closed. There was released in August 1984an Australian version of this magazine as well, of the same name and similarly themed (however it ran longer - from 1981 to 1997).

Other Amstrad content such as reviews and type-ins followed and became regular. By early 1987 CPC content began to taper off.
