The Commodore Amiga is a family of personal computers sold by Commodore in the 1980s and 1990s. Based on the Motorola 68000 family of microprocessors, the machine has a custom chipset with graphics and sound capabilities that were unprecedented for the price, and a pre-emptive multitasking operating system called AmigaOS.

The Amiga provided a significant upgrade from earlier 8-bit home computers, including Commodore's own C64. Although early Commodore advertisements attempt to cast the computer as an all-purpose business machine, especially when outfitted with the Amiga Sidecar PC compatibility addon, the Amiga was most commercially successful as a home computer, with a wide range of games and creative software.[2][3] It was also a less expensive alternative to the Apple Macintosh and IBM PC as a general-purpose business or home computer.

Initially, the Amiga was developed alongside various Commodore PC clones, but Commodore later left the PC market. History[edit] Commodore launch[edit] Commodore 64. The Commodore 64, also known as the C64, C-64, C= 64,[n 1] or occasionally CBM 64 or VIC-64,[5] is an 8-bit home computer introduced in January 1982 by Commodore International. It is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest-selling single computer model of all time,[6] with independent estimates placing the number sold between 10 and 17 million units.[7] Volume production started in early 1982, with machines being released on to the market in August at a price of US $595 (roughly equivalent to $1,500 in 2015).[8][9] Preceded by the Commodore VIC-20 and Commodore PET, the C64 takes its name from its 64 kilobytes (65,536 bytes) of RAM, and has technologically superior sound and graphical specifications when compared to some earlier systems such as the Apple II and Atari 800, with multi-colour sprites and a more advanced sound processor.

Part of the Commodore 64's success is because it was sold in retail stores instead of just electronics and/or computer stores. FS-UAE Amiga Emulator.
