Commodore is a personal computer company at the same time as Apple, which has created a series of miracles. Commodore 64, introduced by Commodore Company in 1982, became the highest-selling single computer model in Guinness World Records. Amiga, the world's first multimedia computer system, was first introduced in 1985. Because of its special bus, its structure is compatible with standard video signals, and it can handle video and sound signals conveniently with low cost. In 1994, Commodore stopped production and declared bankruptcy. In 1995, Escom AG, a German electronics company, acquired Commodore Electronics Co., Ltd., a pioneer PC company, for 1 million dollars. BASIC introduction Chinese name: Comodo mbth: commodore Category: Computer company declared bankruptcy: In 1994, the company introduced that it used to be a best-selling computer, and the list of main products. In 1977, Apple, Comodo and Radio Shack entered the personal computer market, and Microsoft provided BASIC to most early personal computers, when Basic was the most important software element. According to Gates' own description: "In the first three years of Microsoft's creation, most other professionals devoted themselves to technical work, while I was responsible for sales, finance and marketing plans. ..... Every time I sell BASIC to a company, I gain more confidence. " In this way, Microsoft BASIC quickly became the software standard of the computer industry under the promotion of low-cost authorization and winning by quantity. At that time, almost every PC manufacturer would use the software authorized by Microsoft. Amiga 5 computer produced by Commodore Company in 198s. Amiga, the world's first multimedia computer system pioneered by Commodore Company in 1985, is compatible with standard video signals because of its special bus, which can handle video and sound signals conveniently and at low cost. Amiga system was originally mainly used for home entertainment and video games, and later developed into TV program production. But its ability as a general computer system is very weak. Recently, Commodore Company has launched an Amiga Vision multimedia authoring system, which can provide users with a complete icon programming language. Commodore 64 is a testimony to the history of personal computers. The complete machine has 1541 single floppy disk drive, a C2N cassette player, a keyboard and 7 floppy disks. This is the traditional calculation method. It has a clock speed of 1.23MHz and 64KB of memory. In the early 198s, its price was $6. In the 197s, the introduction of integrated circuit technology greatly reduced the production cost of computers, and computers began to move towards thousands of households. Computers after 1972 are customarily called the fourth generation computers. Based on large scale integrated circuits, and later very large scale integrated circuits. On April 1st, 1972, INTEL introduced the 88 microprocessor. In 1976, Stephen Wozinak and Steve Jobs founded Apple Computer Company. And launched its Apple I computer. In May 1977, the Apple II computer was released. On June 1st, 1979, INTEL released the 8-bit 888 microprocessor. In 1982, microcomputers became popular and entered schools and families in large numbers. In January, 1982, Commodore 64 computer was released at a price of $595. Published in February 1982, 8286. The clock frequency is increased to 2MHz, and the protection mode is added, so that 16M memory can be accessed. Support more than 1GB of virtual memory. It executes 2.7 million instructions per second and integrates 134, transistors. In August, 1997, Tulip, a Dutch computer manufacturer, recently stopped its plan to buy commodore. Tulip's board of directors said it could not reach an agreement on the acquisition, but would not disclose more details. Tulip and commodore announced a merger plan on June 26th, and together they formed a new company with an annual turnover of 5 million dollars by 1998. Used to be a best-selling computer. In 1954, Jack Tramiel founded Commodore Business Machines(CBM) in Toronto, Canada, whose main business was to repair typewriters. This person once served as a navy in World War II, and his famous saying is "Shopping malls are like battlefields". In 1982, Jack Tramiel's company launched the epoch-making Commodore 64 (Commodore C64). This "Volkswagen in Computer" made many families understand the concept of computer for the first time. Over the years, it sold 22 million copies, surpassing any other PC model, and there were more than 6, kinds of platform games. The characteristic of this computer is that everything is integrated into the keyboard, such as audio tape for storage, 2KB ROM and 64KB RAM. In 1985, CBM introduced Amiga, which was amazing with advanced features such as high-resolution color quality, graphical user interface, preemptive multitasking and four-channel stereo. Unfortunately, due to poor management, CBM Company went bankrupt in 1994, and its assets, technology and patents were sold to European computer manufacturer Escom. A few years later, Escom also went bankrupt and was transferred to Gateway Computers. In 1997, Dutch computer manufacturer Tulip Computers NV bought the brand and Logo of Commodore, and in 23, it began to sell peripheral devices of this brand, such as USB Key encryption locks, CD-R burning discs, etc. This is the first time that this brand has been reconnected with computers since 1994. Today's Commodore Gaming Company just inherited the name "Commodore" of CBM Company. Today, with the rapid development of IT industry and the slight slump of PC industry, can Commodore be reborn and bring us new surprises?

In 1948, the first self-produced car "48-215" on the Australian mainland was driven from Horton's factory. Horton's logo is a red circular relief of a lion rolling a ball, and its design is inspired by an old legend: the scene of an Egyptian lion rolling a stone inspired mankind to invent the wheel. Today, Horton not only dominates the Australian car world, but also is famous for forging powerful engines, and that red lion is even more symbolic. Horton has many products that he has successfully developed, including Commodore, which has been the best-selling medium and high-end car in Australia for eight consecutive years, State *** an/Caprice, which has been ranked in the top five in Australian high-end car sales, and Monaro, the most popular two-door sports car in Australia. Before 23, Horton had been the largest market share holder in Australia's automobile market. Up to now, he has produced more than 6 million cars and become a global automobile company. In 21 alone, his exports amounted to 1.16 billion Australian dollars, and it is estimated that one third of his products will be exported abroad by 25. Horton's R&D and production capacity in engine, transmission and chassis are at the international leading level, and he owns three famous engine production lines, namely FII, V6 and HFV6. Royaum's ALLOYTEC V6 all-aluminum engine is produced by Horton's state-of-the-art engine factory in Melbourne Port. Horton is a global supplier of engines and gearboxes for General Motors, and its superior engine systems have been equipped on many noble cars of the GM family and exported to four continents. In 1999, Horton exported 3 million engines, and in 21, the export volume of V6 and FII reached 1, and 16, respectively. It is particularly worth mentioning that Horton's dynamic strength was brought into full play in the V8 International Super Touring Car Competition, one of the four major automobile races in the world. The vehicle in this competition is based on the body of a mass-produced car, and it is stipulated to adopt a 5-liter V8 engine, and the maximum speed is limited to 75 rpm. The maximum horsepower of most racing cars is about 62 horses, the peak torque is about 62Nm, and the maximum speed is 3 kilometers per hour, which is almost close to the level of F1. Horton's V8 Touring racing team has won the championship of V8 Super Touring in Australia for many times, and has been praised as "Red Storm" by fans all over the world.
