differences between 64/64c/educator 64/sx-64
were all of these 100% compatible each other when it came to hardware tricks like fld, fli, vsp, side border stuff, sid tricks, etc? it would be a trip to see something like edge of disgrace running on an educator 64...

sure they are compatible.... except for the slightly different kernal roms (but that shouldnt really be a problem) |

Well.. there are of course some other minor differences (the usual ones, so to speak), such as the 1 cycle timer interrupt differences between some CIA chips, or the different SID-models (6581 vs 8580) etc. Also, I don't know about that educator thingy.. if it is PAL or NTSC etc. |

The Educator 64 hasn't got a SID chip, right, or am I completely off the mark? |

yeah, and a silly irq handler in the kernal that sets the colors to monochrome every frame and disables sprites =) |
