        "Alfabug" is a colorful, exciting game that helps your three- to
        six-year olds learn the alphabet. The program was originally
        written for the unexpanded (5K) VIC-20, and there's also a version
        for the Commodore 64.

        Have you been to a coin arcade lately? If you have, then you know
        the imapct that sound has on the excitement of a video game.
        Whizzes, bangs, and explosions of all sorts are mixed with melodies
        and other special effects. Althrough the visuals provide most of
        the stimuli within a game, good sound effectss add that final
        professional touch.

        Since the Commodore PET was introduced in 1977 as one of the first
        personal computers, hudreds of handy programs and routines have
        been written in Commodore BASIC. Many of these programs, when
        translated and updated, are queally handy for users of today's
        VIC-20 and Commodore 64 computers. From time to time we'll feature
        some of these "Commodore Classics." This one was adapted from a
        program and article by Harvey B. Herman, an associate editor of
        COMPUTE!.

        With this program, you can display a moving message across the top
        or bottom of your VIC screen while another program is doing
        something else. Althrough it does the trick with machine language,
        you don't need to undestand machine language to use it. It is
        provided in the form of a BASIC loader program.

        With this program, your VIC becomes a clock complete with sound and
        colors. And, when you prefer quiet, you can turn the sound down.
        For the unexpanded VIC. If you have an expanded VIC, unplug the
        memory cartridge before loading and running this program.

        This VIC-20 translation of a popular Commodore PET program shows
        how screen compatibility problems can be overcome. It requires an
