The
MOS KIM1 was the
worlds first fully assembled computer. It was a fairly popular KIT computer that
MOS technologies released in 1975 for just US$245 as a 'Computer Trainer'.
Commodore bought MOS in 1976 for US$800,000 and renamed it to Commodore
Semiconductor Group (CSG). CSG continued to make the KIM-1 until about
1980.
