During the Commodore 64's lifetime, sales totaled 30 million units, making it the best-selling single personal computer model of all time. For a substantial period of time (1983-1986), the Commodore 64 dominated the market with between 30% and 40% share and 2 million units sold per year, outselling the IBM PC clones, Apple computers, and Atari computers. Sam Tramiel, a former Commodore president said in a 1989 interview "When I was at Commodore we were building 400,000 C64s a month for a couple of years."

Part of its success was due to the fact that it was sold in retail stores instead of electronics stores, and that Commodore produced many of its parts in-house to control supplies and cost. It is sometimes compared to the Ford Model-T for bringing a new technology to middle-class households via creative mass-production.

Approximately 10,000 commercial software titles were made for the Commodore 64 including development tools, office applications, and games. The machine is also credited with popularizing the computer demo scene. The Commodore 64 is still used today by some computer hobbyists, and various C64 emulators allow anyone with a modern computer, or a compatible game console, to run these programs." (Wikipedia)
What is No-Intro?
No-Intro is a project to create complete rom collections for various systems. It aims to provide roms which are accurate to their physical counterparts. This means no dups, hacks, or bad dumps. No-Intro collection are updated often to ensure that files are as accurate as possible. If you are an emulation junkie, these collections are a must.
Goodsets are the old standard for complete rom sets. The last goodset was updated over a year ago so many of them are missing games at this point. In addition, goodsets include a lot of bad dumps which are useless to most people. No-Intro sets contain only one good rom for each region and are packaged in individual zip archives allowing them to be played directly by most emulators. No-Intro sets are starting to take over where goodsets left off for this reason.
Normally the No-Intro collections are hard to all track down and when you do find some they are often incomplete and outdated. Well no more I say! I'm going to be uploading my No-Intro collections so that they are finally more freely available.
