IEEE article on the c64 from 1985

Came across this and thought other people might find it interesting. There are a few things in there that I never heard before, like why the NTSC model changed from 64 to 65 cycles per line, why the drive was so slow, and a video "sparkle" bug on the original machines that actually triggered sprite collisions...

Anyway, enjoy:
