Computist (September 1988)

"For The Serious User of Personal Computers"

This magazine was primarily for Apple II users and was controversial for its emphasis on circumventing copy protection. While there were other technical articles and contents, the bulk of this magazine was always the publication of "softkeys" and other copyright circumvention techniques.
