from Wikipedia:
The Commodore SX-64, also known as the Executive 64, or VIP-64 in Europe, was a portable, briefcase/suitcase-size “luggable” version of the popular Commodore 64 home computer and holds the distinction of being the first full-color portable computer.
The SX-64 featured a built-in five-inch composite monitor and a built-in 1541 floppy drive. It weighed 23 lb (10.5 kg). The machine was carried by its sturdy handle, which doubled as an adjustable stand. It was announced in January 1983 and released a year later, at $995.

from Wikipedia:
The Sega Master System is an 8-bit cartridge-based video game console that was manufactured by Sega and was first released in 1986.[3] Its original Japanese incarnation was the Sega Mark III (although the “Master System” name has also been used in Japan).
In the European market, this console launched Sega onto a competitive level comparable to Nintendo, due to its wider availability, but failed to put a dent in the North American and Japanese markets. The Master System was released as a direct competitor to the NES/Famicom.

Commodore Amiga 1200
Autopsy:
Description:
- Country: USA
- Most Common: USA/Europe
- Rarity: Unrare
- Year: 1991-92
from Wikipedia:
The Amiga 1200, or A1200, was Commodore International’s third-generation Amiga computer, aimed at the home market. It was launched in October 21, 1992, at a base price of £399 in the United Kingdom and $599 in the United States. Initially, only 30,000 A1200s were available at the UK launch.[1]
Like its predecessor, the Amiga 500, the A1200 is an all-in-one design incorporating the CPU, keyboard, and disk drives (including, unlike the A500, the option of an internal hard disk drive) in one physical unit. The machine was designed to be able to house a 2.5inch HDD internally, but it was possible to mount a 3.5inch HDD inside the 1200 if a little brute force was used.

The low end members of the 264 series are the Commodore 16 and the Commodore 116. Of all the machines showcased at the C.E.S., the C116 was the only model to make it to store shelves as originally designed; though it was only in Europe, and in very small numbers.
The Commodore 116 was originally slated to be the only machine in this series, and was designed by engineers at Commodore-US.

Commodore VIC 20 – 2nd Generation
Description:
- Country: USA
- Most Common: Europe
- Rarity: Unrare
- Year: 1980
The VIC-20 was intended to be more economical than the PET computer. It was equipped with only 5 KB of RAM and used the same MOS 6502 CPU as the PET. The VIC-20′s video chip, the MOS Technology VIC, was a general-purpose color video chip designed by Al Charpentier in 1977 and intended for use in inexpensive display terminals and game consoles, but Commodore couldn’t find a market for the chip.
As the Apple II gained momentum with the advent of VisiCalc in 1979, Jack Tramiel wanted a product that would compete in the same segment, to be presented at the January 1980 CES. For this reason Chuck Peddle and Bill Seiler started to design a computer named TOI (The Other Intellect).

The design was basically the same as the VIC-20 design: Black keys and orange function keys (from F1-F8), and it was said that a few computers have the more angular keys of its predecessor. Earlier models even had some differences, such as the 5-pin video out.

Commodore Floppy Drive 1551 (c16/Plus4)
Description:
- Country: US
- Most Common: Europe
- Rarity: Rare
- Year: 1983
The Commodore 1551 (originally introduced as the SFS 481) was a floppy disk drive for the Commodore Plus/4 home computer. It resembled a charcoal-colored Commodore 1541 and plugged into the cartridge port, providing faster access than the C64/1541 combination.
Commodore reportedly planned an interface to allow use of the 1551 with the C64, but it was never released.
