Commodore 64: Opening The Borders (Type-In From Zzap!64 Magazine)

Let's examine a BASIC type-in from the August 1987 issue of Zzap!64 magazine that allows the Commodore 64's top and bottom borders to be "opened" or "removed" or "killed" or whatever you'd like to call it. Thanks to my patrons that support these extra-nerdy monthly videos.
