Info covered various Commodore computers throughout its life, mostly the Commodore 64 and Amiga. By 1991 it was covering exclusively the Amiga. Though not as popular as some of the larger publications, it was fairly widely distributed and had the novelty of being produced on Commodore equipment. The September/October 1991 issue includes:
Focus

- DTP - Comparing the desktop publishing experience on the Amiga, Macintosh and PC.

- Productivity - A review of ASDG's Art Department Professional from a desktop publishing point of view.
