I can fondly remember changing the terminal background and border color for the first time on my C64: 10 POKE 53280, 0 20 POKE 53281, 0 I can still remember working through the BASIC examples in the manual and magazines. Good times.

hah, this is pretty much the only thing I remember from C64. I did it in one line though: POKE 53280,0:POKE 53281,0

53280, was the inside text area, 53281 was the border area, and 0 was for the color black.
