Commodore User, (also referred to as CU) later renamed to CU Amiga, is a series of American and British magazines published by Commodore International.
Commodore User was launched in October 1983 with an initial preview issue in June 1983. Initially the magazine contained information about in-depth computer information of its time, such as programming tutorials, machine code features, and business software reviews. The first issues were produced and written by editor Dennis Jarrett, writer and future editor Bohdan Buciak, and editorial assistant Nicky Chapman. Features were written by a range of contributors, and the issue sizes grew rapidly from 64 to 96 pages.
The first 12 issues of Commodore User were published by Paradox Group until October 1984; thereafter publishing was handled by Emap until the final issue in February 1990.Game coverage began to appear by the second issue. This consisted of a small section called Screen Scene from issue three.In 1985, the Commodore 64 became more popular. The amount of technical coverage decreased as gaming coverage increased. The circulation began to rise, and CU produced more color through the magazine. At the height of the C64’s success, CU had a page count of 116.
