When the C64 was launched by Commodore in 1982 it immediately set the
standard for 8-bit home computers. Its low cost, superior graphics,
high quality sound and a massive 64 KB of RAM positioned it
as the winner in the home computer wars, knocking out
competitors from the likes of Atari, Texas Instruments, Sinclair,
Apple and IBM.

Selling over 30 million units and introducing a whole generation to
computers and programming, the C64 shook up the video games industry
and sparked cultural phenomena such as computer music and the
demoscene. In recent years the C64 has enjoyed a spectacular revival
manifesting itself once again as a retrocomputing platform.
