Commodore 64 Computer and 1541 Disc Drive Bundle with 2 games and Joystick (Commodore 64)

The Commodore 64, also known as the C64 or the CBM 64, is an 8-bit home computer introduced in January 1982 by Commodore International (first shown at the Consumer Electronics Show, in Las Vegas, January 7–10, 1982). It has been listed in the Guinness World Records as the highest-selling single computer model of all time, with independent estimates placing the number sold between 10 and 17 million units.  The C64 took its name from its 64 kilobytes(65,536 bytes) of RAM. With support for multicolor sprites and a custom chip for waveform generation, the C64 could create superior visuals and audio compared to systems without such custom hardware.

Part of the Commodore 64's success was its sale in regular retail stores instead of only electronics or computer hobbyist specialty stores.  Approximately 10,000 commercial software titles have been made for the Commodore 64 including development tools, office productivity applications, and video games. The C64 is also credited with popularizing the computer demoscene and is still used today by many computer hobbyists.
