What are you talking about?

Every subgroup has its own terms people in the know expect everyone to know. - Everyone knows that … right?

In the wiki is a function active to show a short explanation for certain terms, like what you get when you write C64. - To modify or add those contact Walter.

This page is to try to give some information about terminology used in the Commodore and retro computer community.

REU

A RAM Expansion Unit is a hardware device that increases the amount of RAM available to a computer. The C64U has this functionality build in and can be enabled in the menu.

What is border removal?

Border removal exploits VIC-II behavior when $D011 bit 4 is cleared at specific raster lines. This lets demos display sprites and graphics in the border area.
