A proposito dell'"impronta consolara" del C64 :
"Commodore 64 - Origins
In January 1981, MOS Technology, Inc., Commodore's integrated-circuit design subsidiary, initiated a project to design the graphic and audio chips for a next generation video game console. Design work for the chips was completed in November 1981, but the console project was soon cancelled after a meeting with Commodore president Jack Tramiel. Tramiel wanted the chips to form the base for a sequel to the very popular VIC-20. He proposed that the new system ship with with 64 KB of RAM, which was double the quantity that most home computers contained in late 1981. Although 64 KB of RAM was expensive at the time, Tramiel knew that DRAM prices were falling, and would drop to an acceptable level before full production was reached."
