Cool. I look forward to seeing some of these Amiga Forum scans as I'm never seem that magazine.
I used to love going to the News Agents as there were so many great magazines for lots of formats, not just Amiga, and a wealth of coverdisk content to look at and see which magazine was worth buying.
For me my favourite was CU Amiga. For me it contained a slightly better balance than Amiga Format and their articles and reviews were slightly better written (in my view). But I also liked Amiga Format, Amiga Computing and AUi, of which I also normally bought all of each month too! That was a lot of reading each month and they all had different content which was great.
For more serious software, reviews and articles Amiga Computing was really good, and for the really technical and serious side of the Amiga, AUi was brilliant as it also had the general IT technology section in the middle that kept you up to date in the latest things in the world of IT. AUi was also the first magazine to run three issues with a cover mounted CD. I have all three issues and they have some great content.
Those were the 4 magazines I purchased each month, except when I couldn't find AUi because that was sonetimes hard to find. A small newsagents in Southampton always had it if I couldn't find it anywhere else, but it was quite a walk after college to get there.
I hardly ever purchased Gaming only magazines such as The One, Amiga Action and Amiga Power, but did when they had some good cover mounted demos I wanted to play, or a special issue with the years top 100.
