System Requirements
Wheels required at least a 128 KB RAM expansion to operate. However, it also supported hardware that standard GEOS and the standard C64 KERNAL couldn't handle, including Creative Micro Designs HD hard drives (up to four GB), high-density FD-2000/FD-4000 floppy disk drives (up to 3.2 MB), RAMLink with expanded RAM addressing (up to 16 MB), and SuperCPU 20 MHz accelerator with SuperRAM up to 16 MB.
As a GeoProgrammer update: Concept Concept+ Concept was the first update to fix all known GeoProgrammer bugs, but did not support the Super CPU. Concept+ supported the SCPU, allowed faster code assembly and faster application linking, and took advantage of programming 16-bit applications.
Concept and Concept+ also allowed “linking” any 6502 or other compatible processor 6502 Hex or assembly code. Although so far as is known 8-bit applications could still be coded, desktop accessories, drivers etc. with Concept or Concept+; Concept and Concept+ were the preferred way to learn GEOS/Wheels 6502 machine language because of their updates fixing original bugs in GeoProgrammer.

Famous quotes containing the word system:
“Exploitation and oppression is not a matter of race. It is the system, the apparatus of world-wide brigandage called imperialism, which made the Powers behave the way they did. I have no illusions on this score, nor do I believe that any Asian nation or African nation, in the same state of dominance, and with the same system of colonial profit-amassing and plunder, would have behaved otherwise.”
—Han Suyin (b. 1917)
