Color Computer Coverage

Right after the Color Computer's September 1980 debut, 80-U.S. informed its readers in its very next (November / December 1980) issue. CoCo coverage began in earnest with the March/April 1981 issue's in-depth CoCo article by William Barden, Jr. Although never a CoCo-exclusive publication, 80-U.S. stuck with the CoCo for the entire rest of its run.
