Commodore International, also known as Commodore Business Machines (CBM), was a computer company that manufactured some of the best-selling computers of the early-to-mid-80's, including the Commodore 64, perhaps the most well-known (and certainly best-selling) computer of the 80's, and the Amiga, a popular workstation computer. (See also AmigaOS.)
