A {| align="center" valign="top"[[Image:CWTA_UK_LOGO.png|center|150px]]|} 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 CPC464, then the rest of the CPC range and eventually expanded to cover the Amstrad PCW/PC range as well - until the PCW/PC parts were spun off into a separate magazines as detailed below.The magazine peaked at 118 pages in size. The magazine covered everything from games reviews, large type-in listings (programs or games), the famous 10-liner type-ins, game hints / tips and more. 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). [[Image:CWTACPCwAMTIX!.jpg|center|150px]]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 had [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:CWTA_magazine_changes.jpg CPC added to the end of it's name to become CWTA CPC]. All Amstrad PC content was also spun off to form a new magazine called [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:PersonalComputingWithTheAmstrad.jpg Personal Computing with the Amstrad]. So from June onwards it was back to being purely a CPC magazine. [[Image:CPCCOMPUTELOGO.jpg|left|25px]]In September 1988, the magazine title became the shorter name "CPC Computing" (the top left corner of the magazine said 'The new name for Computing with the Amstrad CPC') and underwent a slight makeover. All Amtix! & Amtips references vanished but essentially it was the same magazine. It ran for 4 issues before being 'merged' into [[Amstrad Computer User]] in January 1989. This was evident, by ACU [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:ACU_Welcome.png welcoming its new readers] and having the 'with CPC Computing' logo on the cover of the magazine for the next 6 issue before disappearing in July 1989 as part of a magazine overhaul. There has also been a [[Computing With The Amstrad - Australian Edition]] which ran from August 1986 until December 1987 under license from Database Publications. Things like 10-liners and listings were re-printed exactly along with other content. {|{{Prettytable|width: 700px; font-size: 2em;}}| ''Issue'' || ''Name''|-| 1 - 28 || Computing with the Amstrad|-| 29 || Computing with the Amstrad, Incorporating [[Amtix]]!|-| 30 - 44 || Computing with the Amstrad CPC, Incorporating [[Amtix]]!|-| 45 - 48 || CPC Computing|-| January 1989 || Merged into ACU|}
