	UCB/LBNL Video Conferencing Tool (vic)
		Vic is a video conferencing application developed by the Network Research Group at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in collaboration with the University of California, Berkeley.
		The vic.xil binary uses Sun's XIL library for video capture, while vic.rtvc bypasses the library and manipulates the device directly.
		Video streams can be displayed simulatanously on a workstation display and on an external video output port, provided your hardware supports external output.

	Under the Hood of the Commodore P500
		The VIC has access to video and color nibble RAM in the system bank, and to the memory in bank 0.
		Because the timing is controlled by the VIC, it is in fact determined by the video standard in use.
		While the Commodore 600/700 models were designed as business models with 80 column monochrome video, the P500 was designed as a home computer with 40 column video, featuring the VIC-II chip that was later available in the C64.

		The VIC is a specially constructed input-output (I/O) chip that offers a large variety of functions, but as suggested by its name, is primarily concerned with the production of the video output signal.
		The Video Interface Chip (or ‘VIC’ as it is commonly called), is one of the most important silicon chips in the VIC-20 microcomputer, coming second only to the 6502A microprocessor itself.
		VIC referenced the VIC-I (Video Interface Chip) chip used for graphics and sound.

	Commodore VIC-20 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The VIC chip's successor, the graphics-and-RAM-refresh VIC-II, was used to great success in Commodore's later best-selling machine, the C64, and also in the dual video output C128 for that computer's 40-column/composite video graphics.
		Importantly, like most video game consoles at the time the VIC had a cartridge port to allow for plug-in cartridges with games and other software as well as for adding memory to the machine.
		An anecdotal bit of evidence to support Commodore's statement that the VIC-20 could be used not only for games but also as a serious introduction to computing, can be said to originate in the fact that a young Linus Torvalds was given a VIC-20 as his first computer.

	Commodore VIC-20 computer
		The VIC-20 has a composite video output connection on the back, but with the VIC modulator you can also use your regular television.
		The VIC in VIC-20 stands for Video Interface Chip.
		But the truth apparently is that it just sounds good, so says former Commodore employee Michael Tomczyk (The VIC Czar), quoted in An interview with Michael Tomczyk, from the Commodore VIC-20 Tribute Page.

		The name "VIC" came from the Video Interface Chip, which, despite its designation, also handled all the sound synthesis in the VIC-20.
		The ease of programming the VIC and availability of an inexpensive modem combined to give the VIC a sizeable library of public domain and freeware software, although much smaller than that of the C64.

	Collision - Graphics on the C64
		The Video generation circuit architecture used in C64 was widely based on the experience given by the design of the VIC-20, and the VIC-II is the successor to the VIC used in that microcomputer.
		Furthermore, the choice of using video signal compatible to TV standards (either in the form of a TV or video monitor) another issue is introduced - different TV standards around the world.
		The VIC-II has however some adapted features compared to the VIC.

	MayhemUK Commodore 64 archive
		In January 1981, a handful of semiconductor engineers at MOS Technology in West Chester, Pa., a subsidiary of Commodore International Ltd, began designing a graphics chip and a sound chip to sell to whomever wanted to make "the world's best video game".
		The MOS designers freely borrowed ideas that they liked - sprites from the TI machine, collision-detection techniques and character-mapped graphics from the Intellivision, and a bit-map from their own VIC20.
		(By contrast, the custom chip for Atari's Video Computer System, fabricated 4 years earlier, was built with 6-micrometer technology.) Commodore's video chip was designed with 5-micrometer features.

	MOS_Technology_8563
		The MOS Technology 8563 aka VDC (for Video Display Controller) was MOS' 80-column RGB display video chip used in the Commodore 128 home computer (the C128 also had a VIC-II for producing bitmap graphics and 40-column text, and for C64 compatibility).
		The 8563 was a departure from other MOS video chip designs in that it had its own dedicated memory, and memory space, separate from system memory.
		In addition, yields on the chip were very low, and Commodore's official position after the release of the C128 was that the VDC was incapable of producing bitmapped graphics.

	MOS Technology VIC-II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The VIC-II (Video Interface Chip II), specifically known as the MOS Technology 6567/8562/8564 (NTSC versions), 6569/8565/8566 (PAL), is the integrated circuit chip tasked with generating composite video graphics and DRAM refresh signals in the Commodore 64 and C128 home computers.
		Succeeding MOS's original VIC (used in the VIC-20), the VIC-II was one of the two chips mainly responsible for the C64's success as the best-selling computer model of all time (the other chip being the 6581 SID).
		Mastery of the raster interrupt was essential in order to unleash the VIC-II's capabilities.

		The name VIC comes from the video chip 'Video Interface Controller' but was sold as the VC-20 in Germany because VIC is a swearword(!) The identical serial interface means many peripherals are interchangeable with the 64.
		The VIC 20 was introduced in 1981 as the successor to the PET.
		VIC 1541 5¼" Floppy Drive shared with C64.

		The VIC-20 has a composite video output connection on the back, but with the VIC modulator you can also use your regular television.
		The VIC-20 is also the first computer ever to sell over 1 million units, just a few months ahead of the Apple II 1 million mark, and production of the VIC-20 was up to 9000 units a day, with sales reaching $305 million.
		But the truth apparently is that it just sounds good, so says former Commodore employee Michael Tomczyk (The VIC Czar), quoted in An interview with Michael Tomczyk, from the Commodore VIC-20 Tribute Page.

		He followed 108 around the country with a video camera, chronicling a blur of flying limbs, hard-fast-loud music, and, somehow, a compelling story of what happens to a band mind when they know they’ve reached the end, when it’s time to either get a real job, go back to school or join another band.
		The film, Curse of Instinct: 108’s Final Tour, also features interviews with guitarist Vic Dicara, who, before joining 108 and the Krishnas, had served time in Inside Out with Zack de la Rocha.
		Last year, Curse of Instinct won a Golden Orb award from the No Dance Film Festival in Park City, Utah (a rebel offspring of the more famous Sundance Fest), and this month it’s finally available on home video for a dirt-cheap $10.
