Technic
- FutureView issues are released on 3.5" or 5.25" discs (or DSK images) in Vortex format, which provides 704 KB space. In addition the FutureOS folder for the SD card of the M4 expansion does contain all released issues too.
- The articles can contain text, tables, semigraphic characters and bitmap graphics.
- FutureView uses a character set of 9 bit height, which provides a better legibility than the usual 8 bit height character sets.
- FV uses connected expansion RAM, in this case it loads all data at once and no reload is needed while using FV. This makes sense since all the FV issues contain a lot of texts and graphics.
