One of the UK Amstrad magazines for the CPC, issued monthly from January 1985 (Vol 1, No 1) to December 1988 (Vol 4, No 12) - lasting almost 4 years. The magazine started off catering for just the CPC 464, then the rest of the CPC range and eventually expanded to cover the PCW range as well - until the PCW was spun off into a separate magazine as detailed below. The magazine peaked at 118 pages in size.
In October 1986, the magazine updated it's cover logo and in May 1987 [[Amtix]]! was [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:AMTIX_Welcome.png rolled into the magazine], as evidenced by the Incorporating Amtix! logo on the front cover for the next 16 issues (until August 1988).
May 1987's issue contained essentially the first edition of [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:CWTAPCWMag.jpg Computing with the Amstrad PCW] which then in June 1987 split off to form its own separate magazine (also by Database Publications) - hence why CWTA became known as Computing with the Amstrad CPC. So from June onwards it was purely a CPC magazine.
