Unfortunately we no longer have the time to maintain a FAQ or other extra
documents. The old version of the FAQ is already quite outdated.<br>
Anyway, we started setting up a new FAQ which can be found at the
<a href="http://www.vicekb.de.vu/">VICE knowledge base</a> in its
preliminary state.
<p>Anyway, we probably need more help to keep all things going, so here
is the usual call for volunteers... <tt>;-)</tt> If you like to join our

What is VICE?
</h1>
<b>VICE</b> is a program that runs on a Unix, MS-DOS, Win32, OS/2, Acorn
RISC OS, QNX 6.x or BeOS machine and executes programs intended for the
old 8-bit computers. The current version emulates the C64, the C128, the
VIC20, all the PET models (except the SuperPET 9000, which is out of line
anyway), the PLUS4 and the CBM-II (aka C610).
<p>If you have any comments or bug reports, please contact us at one of
the addresses given below.
<p>VICE is under constant change. Anyone interested in helping development
of VICE is welcome. Please contact
<a href="mailto:vice-devel@firenze.linux.it">us</a>
to avoid doing something that someone else has done already. <tt>(-:</tt>
<p>Of course our warm thanks go to everyone who has helped us in developing
VICE during these past few years.

<p>Before contacting us, have a look at the
<a href="http://www.vicekb.de.vu/">VICE knowledge base</a> (which is under
construction at the moment) if your question is answered there. Keep in mind
that we work on VICE in our spare-time, so the more time we don't need to answer
the same questions over and over again, the more time we have to improve the
emulation itself. On the other hand, that does not mean that you should not
contact us, especially if you find bugs or have suggestions which might
improve the emulation.</p>

Generic questions, bug reports, suggestions etc.: The Vice team

</ul>
Please put the word <tt>VICE</tt> <i>in all capitals</i> in your subject
line (e.g. <tt>VICE fails to run game XXX</tt>). This helps mail splitting
and reduces chances that your message is unintentionally deleted, forgotten
