I'm new
at collecting classics. What is a VIC-20?
The VIC-20 was Commodore's first computer...2K of RAM (I think), did and color TV screen stuff.
The VIC-20 was my only
computer from '82-'86 unfortunatly I gave it away in '90, and I finally
got
one to replace it today!
Congradulations on
getting your VIC-20, and I would like to know about it's
specs.
I believe TV's in Bahrain are PAL instead of NTSC,
or maybe I'm thinking
of
the United Arab Emirates.
Yes, here in Bahrain they are PAL, but I'm an American, born and bred, and
I'm only living here for a few years, so it's a multisystem, so it can do
NTSC, PAL or any other major standard. They're PAL pretty much everywhere
from the UK to China, then in Japan, it goes back to
NTSC.
Thanks,
