Fred disc magazine was owned and run during the 1990’s by Colin MacDonald and is the finest disc-based magazine ever to come out of Monifieth in Scotland.
Fred ran for 82 mostly monthly issues and it’s success spawned the production of FRED Publishing that managed to secure the most famous licence of all for Lemmings.

One of the ways in which SamCo kept in touch with their customers, was to launch a disk magazine. This contained demos of upcoming software, specially written articles, reviews, news and editorials.
Unfortunately, the information and demos didn’t translate into product sales. “We gave too much away” was a later comment, referring to the entire first level of Plasmoid (later called Dyzonium) and six levels of Batz 'n Balls which were included.
The NewsDisk was a creation of David Ledbury and Alan Miles.
