 Personal Computer World - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It should not be confused with PC World, which can refer either to an unrelated magazine, or to the British computer retailer.
Personal Computer World (usually referred to as PCW) is a long-running British Computer magazine, founded by the Yugoslavian-born Angelo Zgorelec
At its inception in 1978 'personal computer' was still a generic term, and did not refer specifically to the Wintel (or 'IBM PC compatible') platform; in fact, such a thing did not exist at the time (the original IBM PC itself would not be launched for another three years).

Our PET computer has been designed as a fully integrated and independently operable unit that can be used from the day it is purchased by simply plugging into a standard mains supply.
The PET has been designed for the person who wants to use its capabilities and not for the man who wants to poke his soldering iron around at least inside the machine.
Meanwhile we are already setting up new offices and a "PET Computer Centre" in Central London (open sometime in April at 360 Euston Road) which we hope users and others interested will visit to evaluate PET, exchange ideas and generally use as a 'Personal Computer Centre'.
