_{Cover of AC's Tech Amiga, Vol. 1, No. 4}

AC's Tech for the Commodore Amiga was a technically oriented magazine dedicated to the Commodore Amiga. Every issue would be full of various hardware and software projects in addition to news and other more typical coverage of the Amiga. I can't find a date on it but this issue would be from late 1991 or early 1992 and includes:

Features

• State of the Amiga Development Denver DevCon Address - This is the keynote address by Jeff Scherb at Denver DevCon '91. Jeff Scherb was the vice president of CATS which stood for Commodore Amiga Technical Support or Commodore Application and Techincal Support depending on the time period. It paints a rosy picture of the success of current and upcoming products including the CDTV, Amiga 3000T, Amiga 500 and others. Commodore would be bankrupt less than 3 years later.
