Preface
This book is a collection of relevant facts and figures about
your Commodore 64 computer.
As well as including full memory maps, microprocessor
instruction set, computer glossary, interface tables, disk for
mats, Basic commands, input/output tables, memory
architecture, and much more, this conveniently sized book
tells you, at a glance, any important fact you need to know
when programming and using your computer.
We've tried to include as much relevant material as possible
in as small a space as possible. As a result, the majority of this
book is simply facts and figures: one day we might write a
book with words in it!
We'd like to thank Jim Butterfield (without whom...) for
getting the whole Commodore scene rolling in his own
inimitable style, anyone who's given us any help, advice and
information in compiling this book, the New Inn in Gawcott
for providing excellent pints of Marston ales in times of stress,
and finally our wives. Penny and Beryl, for putting up with us.
P.G. and D.D.
