Abstract

Commodore Power/Play was an official Commodore computer user magazine, published seasonly and later bimonthly by Commodore Business Machines. Power/Play targeted a consumer audience, covering home software, games, and hobbyist use. CBM published Power/Play in tandem with another Commodore computer magazine, the business-focused Commodore Microcomputers magazine.

The two magazines were merged in late 1986 into a single publication, Commodore Magazine.
