a tutto COMMODORE

A Tutto Commodore was an Italian magazine dedicated entirely to the Commodore line of home computers, particularly the Commodore 64, Commodore 128, and later models like the Amiga. Published during the 1980s and early 1990s, it catered to a broad audience of Italian computer enthusiasts, from young gamers to hobbyist programmers. The magazine’s name, which translates to “All About Commodore,” reflected its comprehensive coverage of the platform’s capabilities, news, and software ecosystem.

Each issue featured a combination of software reviews, hardware guides, and programming tutorials, often including type-in listings for BASIC or machine code programs. A Tutto Commodore placed strong emphasis on practical use, offering solutions to common user problems, tips for optimizing performance, and tricks for game enhancement or cheat codes. The publication also served as a marketplace of ideas, highlighting user-submitted content and covering developments in the broader European Commodore scene.

The magazine contributed to sustaining the popularity of Commodore computers in Italy well after their commercial peak, helping foster a loyal and technically capable user community. Though it eventually disappeared as the Commodore brand declined, *A Tutto Commodore* remains fondly remembered by collectors and retrocomputing fans as a vital piece of Italy’s 8-bit computing history.
