Commodore PET, C64, 600-series, 264-series and Amiga computers from the collection.
Commodore produced machines for business, education, home computing and games. This pilot preserves the computers recorded in the original museum, with the longer entries separated into their own pages and the shorter notes retained below.
1977 and 1979
The PET family combined the computer, keyboard, display and—in the earliest model—cassette storage in one substantial case.
1982
A hugely popular home computer with excellent software support, distinctive graphics and SID sound.
1986
A powerful and popular home computer whose graphics and sound gave many games an arcade-like quality.
1983
A cross between the PET and the C64, these machines were not very successful and were not sold for long.
1984
Although not a popular machine, the Plus/4 was in some ways more powerful than the C64, with BASIC 3.5 and a larger colour palette. Most buyers still chose the C64 because of its established software base.
1984
The C16 shared much of the Plus/4 architecture, including BASIC 3.5 and its expanded colour palette, but provided 16K of RAM.
1992
A smaller, lower-cost development of the A500.
