your Commodore 64 computer.

As ell as including full memory maps, microprocessor

instruction set, computer glossary, interface tables, disk for

architecture, and much more, this conveniently sized book

tells you, at a glance, any important fact you need to kno

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 e might rite a

We'd like to thank Jim Butterfield ( ithout hom...) for

inimitable style, anyone ho's given us any help, advice and

information in compiling this book, the Ne Inn in Ga cott

for providing excellent pints of Marston ales in times of stress,

and finally our ives. Penny and Beryl, for putting up ith us.
