Check out this very interesting bug in #commodore #basic that can be used in several ways. In one case this bug causes the listing of a basic code to fail but
in another case, you can create some magical #riddles using a REM Statement. #c64 #basic #rem #bug #retrocomputing #commodore64

I found this, a little bit older but still informative video: "How the MOS 6502 Sparked a Computing Revolution" and I would say: It's still sparking nicely :) #mos #6502 #commodore #apple #retrocomputing

> Video-Game[sic] Storage Case. Stores 12 video game[sic] cartridges and manuals. 6 books in leather-look PVC, lined with score cards[what?] and mounted in a rack manufactured in smoke finish plastic. Will suit Atari, Mattel, Imagic, Activision, and Parker.
And I love the fake-but-almost screen illustrations. Smooth angled lines! Ha ha no not ever.

I want to start a company like IBM.
We will take easily available open source software, bundle it together in a frankenstein mess and rebrand as our own product.
We will promise the moon, charge the earth, and deliver dirt.
Who's with me?
#commodore64, Interesting fact: Allocating memory for an array of numbers, 7771 in size, will take all available memory in #basic! In fact, 2 bytes will remain free :)
