The Commodore VIC-20 made history when it became the first computer model to ever sell one million units.
Introduced in 1981, the VIC-20 was packed in a colorful box and cleverly marketed; it was also one of the most inexpensive personal computers on the market, and could be hooked up to a television, negating the need for an expensive monitor. Games came in cartridge form, eliminating the need for a disk drive (and the long load times of a cassette drive).
