'''Computing with the Amstrad''' (CWTA) was published in Australia by Strategy Software in Glen Waverley, Victoria in mid-1986 (this had nothing to do with Strategy Publications next door in Mount Waverly, Victoria that produced [[The Amstrad User]]) who then later in early 1987 moved to Blackmans Bay, Tasmania. The magazine was later published (from June '87) by Planet Publications Pty Ltd (still in Blackmans Bay, TAS). The first issue premiered in August 1986 at $3.60 per issue. Due to the change in publishers in June '87 there [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:CWTA-AE-Jul87Page66.jpg was no June issue due to various takeover delays]. This magazine was available in Australia, New Zealand, across the South Pacific and even South Africa. Strategy Software didn't disappear - they still provided hardware and software products for the rest of the magazines life (and beyond perhaps?).
The magazines format was essentially a clone of the British version of [[Computing with the Amstrad]], except for some advertisements, suppliers and pricing - this was all local. Each edition of the magazine would usually be made up of content from at least 2 British magazines that had already been published - sometimes from quite early issues. The magazine covered all the Amstrad machines that were available at the time - with a stronger focus on the CPC Range. Agreements were setup with Database Publications in the UK in order to reproduce content. Even some of the British covers were used - although usually a month or two later. The Business Computing with the Amstrad section from the British magazine also appeared early on - but was eventually dropped. Some have said that the paper quality, colours and font were of a lesser quality compared to the British counterpart.
What was interesting is they reprinted "blindly" all program listing and 10 liner errors - which should have been completely avoidable because they were reproducing content from the British versions many months later (and would have known about the later corrections). So you would see the corrections and apologies in the next issues - a situation that actually was entirely preventable.
