Your Computer was a British computer magazine published monthly from 1981 to 1988 and aimed at the burgeoning home computer market. At one stage it was, in its own words, "Britain's biggest selling home computer magazine". The launch editor was Duncan Scot,[1] who went on to edit Popular Computing Weekly. It offered support across a wide range of computer formats, and included news, type-in programs, and reviews of both software and hardware.
Your Computer covered many of the numerous microcomputers that were released during the peak of the home computer boom in the early-to-mid 1980s and often reviewed multiple new models in a single issue. (For example, the October 1982 issue included the Sanyo PHC-10, 20 and 25, the Commodore 64, the Microprofessor II and the Colour Genie).[2]
