Does anyone remember what the VIC-20 was usually up to
in department store
displays?
PETs?
Pets I do remember. At least, the 8032. There was a screen that said in large
letters "80 COLUMNS" which was manipulated in various ways using the (new)
8000-series ROM routines for scrolling in various directions, defining a virtual
screen smaller than the real one, etc.
