Retro Magazine Archives

The File Exchange now hosts a growing library of classic computing magazines, organized for easy browsing:

Magazine Title > Year > Individual Issues

What is Available

We currently have 3 full years (1984-1986) of five landmark magazines:

  • Compute!'s Gazette — The essential Commodore magazine with type-in programs, reviews, and tutorials
  • Antic Magazine — The Atari Resource, covering Atari 8-bit and ST computers
  • BYTE Magazine — The premier microcomputer magazine covering Apple, IBM, and the industry at large
  • Compute! Magazine — Multi-platform coverage for home computer enthusiasts
  • Dr. Dobb's Journal — The go-to journal for serious programmers and hackers

PDF Reader

Click on any magazine issue, then hit the Read Magazine button to open the built-in PDF reader. Read full issues right in your browser without downloading — flip through articles, type-in programs, ads, and reviews just like the original readers did.

Nightly Updates

Our automated importer scours archive.org every night at 2am and adds new issues across all categories. The library grows while you sleep.

How to Browse

Head to File Exchange > Retro Magazine Archives and expand the magazine title you want. Each year is its own folder with all available issues.

Happy reading!
