Jack Tramiel, founder and president of Commodore Business Machines, had always been interested in the low end of the market, and expressed this in Commodore's first computer, the Personal Electronic Translator [PET], in 1977. But in 1979, a spreadsheet program called VisiCalc became a [[Killer App]] for the [[Apple II]] (and the [[Trope Maker]] for Killer App), and the Apple became the eight-bit market leader. Commodore needed something cheaper than the PET.
