Soft Sector October 1984

Along with its telecommunications articles, this issue offered an introduction to assembly language, explained how to use one of the Sanyo 550/555's bundled programs, and had a type-in game by someone who'd tried some IBM PC games ("including Flight Simulator") and found they didn't work on the Sanyo.

Portable 100 March 1984

Crossing company lines to interface a Model 100 to an Apple II, proclaimed a frequently asked question on CompuServe, was examined in this issue. There were apparently issues doing this at high speed. Telecommunications also provided the subject of a column discussing an "electronic debate on the nuclear arms race" featuring a congressional critic of the administration's policy on a different online service, The Source.

The Color Computer Magazine September 1983

The month-appropriate focus of this issue included an article written "just for kids" and a look at educational software from the Sesame Street spinoff "Children's Computer Workshop." William Barden, Jr. explained how to convert a Color Computer BASIC program to the MC-10 and vice versa (they could load each other's cassettes, but "tokenized" their programs differently) and Dennis Kitsz hacked the MC-10's hardware to put in more memory.
