'''The Amstrad User (TAU)''' was published in Australia by Strategy Publications in Mount Waverley, Victoria (not to be confused with Strategy Software in Tasmania that produced [[Computing With The Amstrad - Australian Edition]]), with the first issue coming out in [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/The_Amstrad_User_-_Issue_01_(_Feb._85_) February 1985] (@ $3.00 per issue) and the last issue being [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/The_Amstrad_User_-_Issue_71_(_Dec._90_) December 1990] (71 issues in total).
To start with, it soley covered the Amstrad CPC 464, then the CPC 664 & CPC 6128. As other Amstrad computers were released the magazine covered them all. At its peak, the range the magazine covered was: CPCRange (464, PCW8256664, PCW85126128), PCW9512PCW Range (8256, PC15128512, PC16409512), PPC512PC Range (1512, PPC6401640, PC20862086, PC22862286, PC23862386, PC2020, PC12861286, PC13861386, ALT2863086, ALT386SX3286 & 386SX), PC3086, PC3286 PPC (Portable) Range (512 & 640) and PC386SXthe ALT (Laptop) Range (286 & 386SX).
It was an independent publication, originally sourcing and writing all it's own articles and content from writers mostly within Australia. As this became more difficult with time, it set up agreements with Future Publishing and Database Publications to reprint content from their respective magazines - Amstrad Action, 8000 Plus and CPC Computing (formerly Computing with the Amstrad).
