SCIENCE?

Here's a little thing I've never seen before. In this photo:

from an Ebay auction, if you look at the software in the bag, at the bottom is something labelled "SCIENCE".

Does anyone know what this is? An education pack sold in the States for instance. I never have seen this one before.

Judging by the color of the design, this is obviously for the 64.

All game carts for the 64 made by Commodore and the CP/M cart were sold in packages of that color.

That is a copy of the public domain series of disks that
CBM put out. There was a series for science, math, history, etc. They
are just folders that have a slot inside for a disk, and a place to
keep the instructions for the programs.

Here is a picture of 4 of the science series in my collection:

I haven't messed around with these much, but most of the programs
are just generic basic public domain software converted to the C64.


I hope this helps!

Okay thanks for the info guys. I guess that concludes that. It has nothing to do with the VIC-20.
