Commodore 64



The Commodore 64 was one of the most popular of its era and it is the best-selling model of home computer of all time.

The C64 uses an 8 bit MOS Technology 6510 microprocessor. This is a close derivative of the 6502, with an added 6-bit internal I/O port that in the C64 is used for two purposes: to bank-switch the machine's ROM in and out of the processor's address space, and to operate the datasette tape recorder. The C64 has 64 KB of RAM, of which 38 kB are available to built-in Commodore BASIC 2.0.
