Mapping the VIC

Post by Jeff-20 »

Who has this book and why is it so special? It is US$250 on Amazon.com!

(While my own book continues to drop in value :( )

I sure would like to get a copy. One was on ebay from Australia last week, but I missed it.

Look at the rest of these prices! Are we increasing the interest level in the VIC?

I have the book. It was released fairly late (1983 or 1984) when the VIC was already on its downward spiral. However it is excellent: a complete description of the memory map, as the title implies.

Crazy prices :shock: :shock:

I have a Z8000 book that I once saw posted on Amazon for close to $300.

If I could get even a fraction of that, I would sell it.

On mapping Vic-20, Rich Cini has post disassembly of Kernel on his web site:

I have 19th century Dickens books that wouldn't fetch that amount.

Weird though, it's now gone - did someone buy it?
