The big news back then was increases in modem speeds from 300 to 1200 to 2400 to etc.... |
For me I won a vic 20 and purchased the tape drive and a memor upgrade. Problem was when the memory (a plug in module) was in it changed the addresses and something written for the lower memory threshold didn't work with the memory upgrade in.
