Today's old computer is the Commodore PET!

The Commodore 2001 released January of 1977, and the Commodore 4032 released 3 years later. The 4032 stood for the 40 character display, and the 32K RAM memory. They were initially named to capitalize on the 'Pet Rock Fad' of the mid 70's. One of the worst (harsh, I know </3) aspects of the OG 2001 model was the keyboard, whose keys were small and hard to click on. (Chiclet keyboard) Look at this thing!

This was thankfully fixed in the 4032 model :-)

Ah the Commodore C16! Built to be a cost-reduced business oriented machine, Commodore fumbled with pricing and marketing, which meant it mostly fought with the more capable Commodore 64. Hampered by it's limited 16k of memory and lackluster software library, the C16 and higher RAM sibling the Commodore Plus/4 both left the market not long after they arrived. Despite the faults, it has to be said that the C16 looks fantastic!

Vintage Ad, 1980′s

My very first computer....it shipped with 5K of memory, but only about 3K was available to the user.  I loved it.
