Magazine name: CPC Schneider International Publisher: DMV, Eschwege Language: German Schedule: Monthly/Bi-Monthly First issue: 1985-03 Last issue: 1992/1993 ?

The CPC Schneider International originally aimed at the semi-professional CPC user. It contained game and software tests, market news, hardware modification tips (8th printer bit, CP/M-switch, and similar) and much more.

During its life-time, the magazine changed its name quite a few times:

The first rename took place after Schneider started to sell the PCW/Joyce and PC 1512/PC 1640 computers in Germany. The CPC Schneider International was renamed to "PC Schneider International" (With "CPC" written vertically inside the "P" in PC, which was going to last until they should rename to CPC again) to reflect the fact that it also covered the PCW/PC models.

The second and third rename happened after Schneider Computer Division stopped distributing the CPC computers in Germany and Amstrad stepped in. The magazine was named "PC Amstrad/Schneider International" for a short time and to "PC Amstrad International" later.

As of 1991-10, the published decided to drop the PC section and concentrate on the CPCs and PCWs/Joyces only, so the magazine was renamed a fourth and last time: "CPC Amstrad International".
