Refurbishing Tip
I really appreciate the article "Refurbish Your 64" from the December issue of COMPUTE!. Here is an additional convenience feature. If you change line 3470 to read as follows, you won't have to enter the direct mode statements (POKE 55, 0: POKE 56, 160: POKE 643, 160: POKE 644, 160:NEW) after the program is run.
3470 READ A0: IF A0=99999 THEN POKE 253, 253: SYS49194: POKE 643, 0: POKE 644, 160:NEW
