Needs a bit more editing.

First paragraph, first sentence of editorial, "century" is spelled incorrectly as "centaury"

First editorial paragraph uses "to" where "too" should have been used.

Amiga section of editorial, "GTWa (Games That Weren’t Amiga)" is bad. It's "Amiga Games That Weren't" (AGTW)

Title of "READERS COMMENTS" in editorial is missing an apostrophe.

In this section the word "there" is used incorrectly when "their" is the correct word.

EBOOK section of editorial: "feedback" is one word.
This whole paragraph is also a single run-on sentence.

The paragraph following the editorial contains random uppercase letters for no reason.
"I am pretty sure that Every Commodore user is a Doctor who
fan and I for one really enjoyed the Sarah Jane’s adventures;
and so on this assumption it is with sadness that I read about
the following announcement."

As does the cover image description:
"Flag Picture on the Front page Designed by Robert Parker Aged 4"

Excessive use of the semicolon all through the editorial.

Jim Scabery section says:
"If you wish to e-mail Jim, you can contact him at"
Then drops off, no contact method provided until later...

Didn't bother even reading the rest...
