Commodore VIC-20 - when computers found their way home
The era of home computers began with a hobby project.
The VIC-20 was the first home computer produced by Commodore.
The history of the VIC-20 begins in 1977, when MOS Technologies, already part of Commodore, developed the 6560 graphics chip (the PAL-6561 version was sold in Europe) called VIC (short for video interface chip). Soon the design process began at Commodore, or rather the search for a design for their first home computer, which was to be presented at CES in 1980.
