MacUser was a monthly computer magazine published by Ziff Davis in the United States while the UK edition was published by Dennis Publishing.
MacUser started publication in late 1985 as a four-color monthly and contained general interest Mac articles. It had reviews and regular columns for novice and experienced users with a more humorous view of the Macintosh world than other publications of the time. Games were reviewed and well as business and productivity software. A unique feature, not available in other publications, was the inclusion of about 250 capsule reviews in each edition.
The initial cover price was $3.50 with an annual subscription of $23 per year or $42 for two-years.
In 1997, the publication was absorbed into Macworld as Macworld, incorporating MacUser (a name reflected subtly on the magazine's Table of Contents page) reflecting a consolidation of the Ziff Davis-owned MacUser magazine into the International Data Group-owned Macworld within the new Mac Publishing joint venture between the two publishers.
