The channel is known for its videos on restoration of old computers, [12] [13] and demonstration of old technology. [14] [15] Murray has also developed video games designed to run on old computers, including Planet X1 for the VIC-20, [16] Planet X2 for Commodore 64, [17] [18] Planet X3 for MS-DOS [19] [20] [21] and Attack of the PETSCII Robots for the Commodore PET (since ported to other ...
The C64 has 64 KB of 8-bit-wide dynamic RAM, 1 KB of 4-bit-wide static color RAM for text mode, and 38 KB are available to built-in Commodore BASIC 2.0 on startup. There is 20 KB of ROM, made up of the BASIC interpreter, the KERNAL , and the character ROM.

MLX was introduced in the December 1983 issue of COMPUTE! for the Commodore 64 and Atari 8-bit computers [1] alongside the December 1983 COMPUTE!'s Gazette [2] for the Commodore 64. This was followed by a version for the VIC-20 with 8 K expansion, [ 3 ] in the January 1984 issue of COMPUTE!'s Gazette and by Tiny MLX, in the March 1984 Gazette ...
The Commodore 64 version of KoalaPainter used a fairly simple file format corresponding directly to the way bitmapped graphics are handled on the computer: A two-byte load address, followed immediately by 8,000 bytes of raw bitmap data, 1,000 bytes of raw "Video Matrix" data, 1,000 bytes of raw "Color RAM" data, and a one-byte Background Color ...
Image of the internals of a Commodore 64 showing the 6510 CPU (40-pin DIP, lower left). The chip on the right is the 6581 SID. The production week/year (WWYY) of each chip is given below its name. The MOS Technology 6510 is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by MOS Technology. It is a modified form of the very successful 6502.
An 8-bit register can store 2 8 different values. The range of integer values that can be stored in 8 bits depends on the integer representation used. With the two most common representations, the range is 0 through 255 (2 8 − 1) for representation as an binary number, and −128 (−1 × 2 7) through 127 (2 7 − 1) for representation as two's complement.
The MOS Technology 6581/8580 SID (Sound Interface Device) is the built-in programmable sound generator chip of the Commodore CBM-II, Commodore 64, [1] Commodore 128, and MAX Machine home computers. Together with the VIC-II graphics chip, the SID was instrumental in making the C64 the best-selling home computer in history, [ 2 ] and is partly ...
