I worked for Compute! magazine when I was in high school (an excellent job, porting games for one PC to another) and so maybe it's just a me thing, but it seems weird to name this "Compute's Gazette" when there's no connection to the original magazine, besides fandom.

Compute! had a fork? of a magazine specifically for Commodore Computers called 'Compute! Gazette' https://archive.org/details/compute-gazette I spent many of days in my youth typing in the pages of code they included at the end of every issue.

Yeah, I get that this is a re-creation of an existing title focused on C64 (also published out of the same office as the one I worked in). What's odd to me is that there's no connection to the original magazine -- no IP rights acquired, none of the old writers or editors involved, just name-squatting on something people feel nostalgia for. But maybe it'll be great.

What was your most and least favorite computer to port games to?

[robterrell]

TI-99/4a was the worst for me, but I think the entire reason I was hired was that everyone else hated porting to the Apple //.

Undoubtedly because the Apple II's graphics and sound sucked royally.
