Re: CBM prg Studio

Hi, can someone please tell me how to get the control characters in this software? I want to type up a few programs, but the instructions on how to get the special characters are a little confusing. Thanks! :)

Re: Usbourne books now online for free

I was not aware of these books until just now, but I have taken a look at them and they look awesome. :) I am having a little trouble understanding the machine language book, but i think I will be able to understand it once I learn more about memory on the VIC-20. :) Also I believe it is in "Pr...

Re: Axel F from Beverly Hills Cop on VIC-20?

First of all, here's the direct link to that Axel F. clip on Youtube. ;) That being said, the execution of this piece doesn't seem to be too hard on the SID registers.

I have bought two cartridges for it, Gorf (hence my username), and the VIC-20 Multicart (http://www.gamingenterprisesinc.com/vic20/). I love my VIC and I hope to expand my knowledge (my first order of business ...
