Compute!'s Gazette from each issue was available to subscribers for an extra fee. Perhaps "Gazette"s most popular and enduring type-in application was the "SpeedScript" word processor. A monthly column entitled The VIC Magician by Michael Tomczyk presented BASIC programming tips and tricks for the Commodore VIC-20 and Commodore 64. Towards the end of the 1980s, the magazine's size steadily decreased due to the increasing switch from 8-bit to 16-bit home computers. The last stand-alone issue of "Compute!'s Gazette" was published with cover date June 1990. At that point, the "Compute!" brand, including "Gazette", was sold to the publishers of "Omni" and "Penthouse".
