the "20" in the VIC20 stood for 20kb. That's 20kb of free memory. Not Gb. Not Mb. But Kb. 20x1024 bytes of memory.

I don't remember what it sold for, but the Commodore 64 retailed for $595 and it had a whopping 64kb of memory.

The optional 5.25" disk drive held either 256Kb or 512Kb formatted as I recall.

I never did the kit thing, but I can think of four different computers I owned before 1980 when the PC came out.

Actually, I think three were before the PC, one was a PC alternative by Epson that ran MPM (a multi-task) version of CPM
