Subject: Re: commodore 64/128 question
Mind you, if someone offered me a 64 or a 128, I would
choose the 128, if
that helps you make up your mind. I don't have a C64 on my desk; I have a
128DCR, and I run all of my 64 software on it, plus all the added features
of being a 128 (true 80-column 640x400 graphics with a CGA monitor; fast
serial transfers; 16-64K of additional VRAM which can be accessed from 64
mode as "cache"; and 2MHz mode). Really, the 128 is a very worthy
successor
to the 64.
How much effort is the VRAM hack? What is involved?
