Byte was one of the clear contenders for the best (if not the best) general computer magazine - but as an avid commodore 64 hacker back in 1982-1983, Compute!, with it's monthly updates on various things like undocumented 6510 opcodes, and their interesting assembly programs that we typed in by hand (mostly consisting of a bunch of data/poke statements, will always hold a warm place in my heart.
