Is COMPUTE!'s Gazette really being revived ?

[Marcio D.]

Not sure if this is an April Fool's joke, or maybe a scam. Please proceed with caution:

If it's legitimate, I don't like that it's covering all retro computers - e.g. Apple, Atari, PC, Commodore, etc. If they want it to be that broad, why not just call it COMPUTE! like the flagship title back in the day, instead of COMPUTE!'s Gazette ?

If they're calling it Gazette, they should just focus on Commodore platforms, from the PET all the way up to the Amiga and its derivatives !

I honestly don't know what to make of it but this would be a huge deal if it comes to fruition!

Maintaining any publication is ambitious- I wish them well.
I can't blame them for diversifying to all retrocomputers; the stream of Commodore news is not exactly on the level of its heyday.

Compute's Gazette is likely to be an easier brand on 2025 internet - domain name, social handles, Googleability etc.
