I don't think it did well anywhere. Just another wacky item from the Commodore product lineup. Even the C128 was used in C64 mode by most of its owners.

- orionblastar 4y agoThere was more C64 stuff than C128 stuff. The C128 even did CP/M80 with a Z80 CPU. I had one.

Trouble is, running CP/M required a 1571 drive and an 80 column monitor, both expensive peripherals. Also CP/M was pretty much in decline in 1985, that's why I say Commodore management had rather odd ideas about product placement.
