Description
The Commodore 64 from 1982 was hugely successful in the early 1980s: as many as 17 million were sold, more than any personal computer from Apple or IBM at the time. It had a 1 Mhz MOS 6510 microprocessor and 64 KB of RAM, and a range of accessories, and by one estimate there were more than 10,000 commercial games and applications produced.
You can play with our C64 Mini, a fully compatibly 50% scale replica. Enjoy playing a few games, or try a simple BASIC 2.0 program.
Remarkably, this tiny replica has the fastest microprocessor of all the artifacts on display: a dual-core A20 ARM Cortex CPU with 512KB of RAM running at least *)) Mhz.
