Ports on the right hand side of
the computer. Once used
primarily for games, joysticks are
now increasingly being used for
educational and business
software. Joysticks designed for
the Commodore 64 are
compatible with the Commodore

A mouse
is plugged into either of
the Control Ports and allows you
to move the cursor easily from

select from the menu without
using the keyboard .
