Commodore 64
The Commodore 64 was first announced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, NV on January 7 of 1982. It used an 8-bit MOS 6502 microprocessor. It could be connected to a television or a RGB monitor connected via a proprietary cable. It also featured th ability to plug in cartridges in the back of the console or access and stored programs from a 5 1/4" external floppy disk drive.
It was on the Commodore 64 that I was introduced to databases. I stumbled across the Pro-line Profile 64 software at a computer store in San Bernardino. When I read what it could do for me, I was sold. A bit pricey nearing $100 in cost, but I had a strong feeling that it was what I was looking for, a way to organize lists of information and generate reports from the data.
