Your COMMODORE 64 has a serial port,
RS-232 port and a user port for use with a
variety of special industrial applications. An
IEEE/488 cartridge is also available as an op-
tional extra.
The COMMODORE 64 will soon offer an ex-
ceptional word processing system that matches
or exceeds the qualities and flexibilities of
most "high-priced" word processors available.
Of course you can save the information on
either a 1541 Disk Drive or a Datassette TM
recorder and have it printed out using a VIC-
PRINTERor PLOTTER.
Applications requiring the use of a lightpen
can be performed by any lightpen that will fit
the COMMODORE 64 game port connector.
Your COMMODORE 64 PROGRAMMER'S REF-
ERENCE GUIDE includes a machine language
section, as well as a BASIC to machine code
interface section. There's even a bibliography
available for more in-depth study.
The COMMODORE 64 can be programmed to
handle a variety of entry-type business appli-
cations. Upper~lower case letters combined
with C64 "business form" graphics make it
easy for you to design forms which can then
be printed on your printer.
The COMMODORE 64 interfaces with a vari-
ety of dot matrix and letter quality printers as
well as plotters.
You can store your favorite recipes on your
COMMODORE 64 and its disk or cassette
storage unit, and end the need for messy rec-
ipe cards that often get lost when you need
them most.
