* Commodore news, tips & pokes *
***************************************
Tip 1 : OLD
-----------
After a NEW command or a reset is it
possible to restore a basic programm
by entering the following line:
POKE2050,8:SYS42291:POKE46,PEEK(35)-
(PEEK(781)>253):POKE45,PEEK(781)+2 AND
255:CLR
You must enter it in the short way.
So: POKE = P + [shift] O etc.
Tip 2 : CLOSE
-------------
SYS 65511 closes all files which are
opened.
Tip 3 :
--------
The owners of a Commodore 1520 plotter
can buy there paper and pens at a Tandy
shop. A Tandy CGP-115 plotter uses the
same pens and paper.
The paper has code 26-1428 and costs 25
guilders (3 x 150 feet)
Three pens are 10 guilders.
Three times black has code 26-1480.
Red, green, blue has code 26-1481
Joke
====
An Amiga is walking on the street with
his little brother the 64. On the other side of the street walks an Atari ST.
Whats that, asks the 64. The Amiga says
That must be a new virus.
How does Mario's doorbell sounds ??
King Kong !!
What do you give a sick computer ??
A grafix tablet !!
AMIGA JUGGLER DEMO ON 64
========================
The well known Amiga-demo 'Juggler'
is now also obtainable on the 64.
The programm is made by RATT and
uses the 16 color multi-color mode.
DUAL CASSETTE II DEMO
=====================
Ash & Dave made a perfect music demo.
On the screen you see a stereo set and
8 audio cassettes. And each cassette
has a tune like 'Moonlight serenade'.
VIDEOGAMES AS MEDICINE
========================
People who had an accident with brain
dammage can train their hand-brain-
eye coordination by playing games.
They made a good progress.
ZERO
====
A new magazine for game freaks is in
the shop now. It's called 'ZERO'
It's a colourfull and readable mag
so try it. Something different now...
Why has the Commodore User (Nov.89)
no free (?) cassette on it for over-
sees countries. I had to pay more for
the mag so i want the tape with the
game on it.
