About This Item

Commodore 64 TB

This TB is a tribute to Commodore 64, the best selling personal computer model of all time.

The Commodore 64 is an 8-bit home computer that was released by Commodore International in August, 1982. The C64 featured a 1 MHz MOS Technology 6510 CPU, 64 kilobytes of RAM with sound and graphics performance that were superior to IBM-compatible computers of that time. (Source: Wikipedia)

This TB contains:

A Commodore key from the original C64 "breadbox" model
A SID chip (MOS Technology 6581 SID), manufacturing week 03/1984
- The SID chip is the "Sound Interface Device" that was one of the main reasons (together with the VIC-II graphics chip) why C64 became so popular.
A piece of the Commodore 64 logo from the original "breadbox" model C64 casing.

Additional information:

A C64 commercial from the early 1980's

A list of C64 emulators that you can use to run C64 software on your own computer

En usko, että pystyn tällähetkellä auttamaan tätä TB:tä kovin paljoa tavoitteissaan, joten pistetään kiertoon... [This entry was edited by Petriz on Sunday, December 21, 2008 at 8:09:44 AM.]

There it was indeed. Now it has some company from the same era, that is Amstrad TB.
