A great system that allows you to return to the past in a click! In an instant, we can go back to a time when we used to spend whole nights, over building in Basic and playing. The system very stable and, importantly, does not send or use, any private data. The system was based on Mx Linux with all its tools, so you can easily customize everything and count on support. I recommend to anyone who remembers those beautiful times of the 90s, and also to those who want to know how it was back then. Thank you to the developers for all their great work!

The C64 was my first home computer & I have fond memories of using it. It lead me to my 30 year journey into System Administration & Electronics repair (mainly because the c64 died a lot and I had to find a source for chips to repair it!) This was a major flash back to a simple time when computers came with programming manuals & the source code was available for us to modify. Jim Butterfield's course on the C64 got started.
I had a hard time getting this to install, kept erroring out on boot from a USB Drive, Ventoy didn't help either! I was frustrated by it looking for /dev/sr0 when the file size exceeds 30 GB, which is even too large for my blue ray burner. I had to install IVentoy PXE server to handle the very large ISO! I used a Sony Vaio Laptop as my install machine. It has great Network Boot capability and four cores. It finally booted and installed fine! I got to try the new OS! I took the drive from the laptop when done and installed it in the desktop which would not boot the ISO from any source! It booted first time & every time without an error. You can't do that with Winblows!
WOW! Awesome feeling but I had to shut off some of the animations, which was not hard to find. Some c64 games threw syntax errors which blew me away, Vice has always ran my D64 files flawlessly! I purged Vice and reinstalled it and that fixed the errors I was getting. It would help if when an app failed that we would get a explanation of where the files should go! I had a hell of a time copying in the roms from my host machine. All & all it was a fun experience, It looks great & most everything worked on my MSI/AMD desktop! A++

I was intrigued by the "new Commodore" but quickly discovered it’s just a standard motherboard capable of running Windows. Hoping the OS might be innovative, I downloaded versions 2 and 3—only to be disappointed. As a longtime IT architect with 27 years in the industry and deep nostalgia for retro computing, I live for vintage systems and pushing their limits.
From the perspective of both new and old tech lovers, the Commodore OS misses the mark. It’s just a Linux distro cluttered with visual add-ons that hinder usability. The graphics are gaudy and lack true nostalgia. Underneath, it's just Linux running emulators—something you could do on any PC. Version 2.0 at least launched D64 files into VICE fullscreen, creating a fleeting illusion of magic. But version 3.0 lost even that—every D64 file opened in a standard window without executing the software.
This OS doesn’t bring back the old days. I get why Linux was used, but let’s talk about what a modern Commodore OS should embody. Actually, I scrapped that thought—because that era is over. An OS once provided access to hardware capabilities within strict limitations. Now, with modern hardware and software enhancements, those limitations fade away. I launch software from my modern PC onto my old systems. This OS forces users to confront that reality. If it ran on an actual Commodore, it wouldn’t have so much unnecessary flash.
A true Commodore legacy should continue the spirit of creativity—making visually and audibly compelling experiences accessible to everyone. The original community thrived on experimentation, pushing the limits of hardware with shared knowledge. A worthy successor should allow users to easily build games in that same spirit. Instead, Commodore OS 3.0 is just another cluttered UI with a BASIC implementation tossed in.
If this were a simple hobby project, I wouldn’t be tearing it apart. But since it's packaged with a paid product—essentially just a custom-designed PC case—it deserves scrutiny. Slapping on some nostalgic fonts and a blue theme isn’t enough. I’d rather stick with my preferred OS on my PC, where I can disable all the unnecessary effects if I want to (or enable them, if I choose). I don't need eSpeak barking at me or amateurish 3D backgrounds disrupting the interface.
When I think of Commodore’s legacy, I think of game engines like Unity and Unreal—tools that continue the tradition of accessible creativity. The "new Commodore" is a novelty item for people unsure how else to spend their money. The OS, at best, is an annoying installation process followed by a major letdown.
To the creator: I get that you enjoy this, and I hope you continue having fun. Maybe that is the legacy—living it, rather than preserving it authentically. But adding every open-source game to 3.0 was a misstep. These aren’t industry-crafted titles; they feel like amateur attempts. Commodore was about games, but its games were better.

Took the time to test it on a real i3 10105 16GB NVME 250GB PC. Strangest distro I tested by far. Music not only is annoying, it autostarts even if you stop it with the icon manually. Also, there is some sort of accessibility option that reads stuff and couldnt turn it of. So those 2 things run ON TOP of any game or app you run, making it an unbearable experience.
Also there is a stupid somewhat fun joke if you dont agree terms and conditions that will ask you several times stupid stuff as a joke.
Selection of games is really nice, has a LOT of games to test, and has a LOT of emulators already preloaded (RPCS3 for example).
Its a nice experiment which I think it sould be tuned so it isnt annoying as hell and make it usable.
Reminds me of a joke OS, but weights 30GB.
Will try future releases.
Also font is ugly and difficult to read.

If you are looking for an Linux OS with that classic Commodore OS feel this is the best option. It a highly customized version of MX Linux which is already really good. my only concern is in making Commodore OS Vision is that some of the drivers were cut out. For example MX Linux runs just fine on an older Macintosh hardware but Commodore OS Vision has issues, I think C=OSV would do better if it more of these hicups are cleared up since its foundation is already solid with MX Linux & Debian as the base. Hopefully version 3.0 is better at working with a larger range of hardware our of the box.

Almost nothing to do with Commodore other than being plastered with logos. Full of animations and sound effects that get old quickly.
Its loaded with prepackaged emulators and roms. Does it work? Yes, but not something I would ever want to daily drive. For a retro gaming station? I would prefer a UI that is more geared towards just that.
Its their "vision" of a future Commodore operating system if you ignore Amiga and its OS which still gets updates, or Aros and Morph OS which are actual descendants.

An interesting project aimed at retro gaming enthusiasts with a LOT of inbuilt games, both native Linux (200+) and obviously Commodore 64 and Amiga games too. But so it should have with a massive 35 GB ISO to download (use the torrent option, it's well seeded and downloads quickly)
It has an annoying sound demo that autoplays and get's quite irritating till you learn how to shut it up. But then it just comes back anyway! I couldn't find a way to permanently stop it because the settings manager(s) didn't work running it live from USB.
Based on MX Linux but with a heavily customised MATE DE, it's certainly different and it's clear a lot of effort has been put into the gaming side, but perhaps not enough on getting other OS features working properly.
I think 7 is a fairly generous rating for what seems like a work in progress, but worth checking out.

As the old advert used to go…
Are you keeping up with the commodore?
the commodore is keeping up with you. ..
except the real commodore didn't.
for all its fans, it was a failure, losing market share to Amstrad, Apple IBM and MS-DOS PCs.
as for this tribute skin
it has far too much many bells and whistles / unwarranted attack surface for my liking.

Commodore Amiga made me love computers. I hope the new Commodore X 64 from mini_itx with Commodore os 2 give as much to my niece.
At a time when computers and the internet have become bland and boring, having a machine with personality with a custom created distro to suite can only bring smiles to many faces and hopefully plant the seed for future technology lovers who are more than a user, but better yet become developers, advance users that aren't afraid of different OSs and can troubleshoot themselves.

Can remember back in the day when I got my first Commodore 64 computer, the hours and sometimes days of typing code and saving to a cassette was how it was. The Amiga wow what a machine. And now we can have it back as a great Operating System. I installed it with no issues at all. Thanks for bringing the memories back...The colors and sound all come back so quick when you think of the C64 and Amiga 500 Days. I remember when I got my first Hard drive for my Amiga 500 it was a whopping 20 Megs and the was like a couple hundred dollars. Oh the Commodore memories will come and go but with a Vision like this they may just be around for many years to come...

I was a teenager when the Commodore 64 was the best selling computer of all time. So of course I was intrigued by this distro. It's described as an unofficial MX Linux respin which is a good choice. The description also mentions it comes set up with auto login and "lowered privileges" which is intended to match the way computers were in the 80s. You're warned not to run your business with it but that you can adjust the security level. This is something I see as a good thing. I was annoyed with how strict the security was on MX forcing me to enter passwords incessantly and the issues with permissions on even the most basic file ops. I was thinking the whole time "Hey, I'm not running a server here!"
The description says no "personal" data is collected. But then when I read the legal terms, which you HAVE to agree to in order to use the OS, you're "granting the right" to collect usage and hardware statistics data. What that means is, while they may not go into your contacts, emails and documents, everything you do in the OS is being tracked. I have issues with OSes collecting any data at all and I didn't care for the fact that I had to read the fine print to verify data was in fact being collected. Because this OS was intended for a laptop that never connects to the Internet anyway I'm not that concerned. But just so you're aware... As for my review, I'm docking a point since there's no option to enable/disable data collection as with other distros.
There are quite a few audio and visual effects including retro speech synthesis. It's very much like the OS itself has been given a sort of video game theme. It has a "fun" vibe to it. You can easily turn some or all of it off and there are additional effects you can activate as well.
The developer warns this is not a lightweight distro. So it has all the apps you usually see in a distro plus apps you don't often see. For example, it has GNUCash which I've never seen in a distro before. There's an Amiga clone paint program and a number of other Commodore/Amiga clone apps to satisfy that nostalgia some may have. In many cases you have two or three of each type of app to choose from such as Chromium, Tor and Firefox browsers. Under the programming category it comes with Gambas BASIC which fits with the retro theming as just about all home computers in the 80s came with BASIC. There are plenty of other modern development tools as well, more than you usually see in a distro, including VS Code. VirtualBox and Wine are also included. There's a full suite of audio, video and graphics tools with the novel addition of C64 and Amiga tracker style music editors. It also has all the tools that come with MX, most of which are quite useful. So it's definitely loaded with decent apps.
For many, the premiere feature will be that it has emulators for bygone Commodore and Amiga machines. So in just a few clicks you're back at the command prompt of your old Commodore 64 or Amiga 500. What's not to like about that! There are eight different emulator links but some of them didn't boot up. I checked the forum and it looks like the issue will be fixed in the next update? For now you'll have to do some tweaking to launch those emulators. That's not nearly it for the emulators though! It has a truckload of other 80s emulators like ZX Spectrum, Z80, pretty much every Atari product, DOS, NES, Playstation, Sega, Nintendo and MAME, plus half a dozen gaming services. It's really cool and it makes this one of the most unique distros I've ever seen. Retro gaming and computing enthusiasts should be very pleased with this setup.
Most of the distros I've downloaded and tested ended up getting deleted. This one I'm keeping.

Commodore OS takes users on a nostalgic journey while seamlessly integrating modern computing capabilities. With its atmospheric retro-inspired graphical user interface (GUI), this operating system evokes fond memories of the classic computing era while delivering a robust and contemporary user experience.
One of the most striking aspects of Commodore OS is its GUI, which pays homage to the iconic design aesthetics of vintage computing systems. From the pixelated icons to the retro color schemes, every detail is meticulously crafted to transport users back to the golden age of computing. Navigating through the interface feels like a delightful stroll down memory lane, reminiscent of the days when computers were just beginning to revolutionize the world.
Beyond its captivating visuals, Commodore OS impresses with its carefully curated selection of applications. Whether you're a gaming enthusiast, a multimedia aficionado, or a productivity-focused user, you'll find a comprehensive suite of software tailored to your needs. From classic games that evoke nostalgia to cutting-edge multimedia tools, the software lineup is diverse and well-rounded, ensuring that users have everything they need right at their fingertips.
What truly sets Commodore OS apart is its seamless fusion of retro charm and modern functionality. While it pays homage to the past, it doesn't compromise on performance or features. Behind its vintage-inspired facade lies a powerful and capable operating system that can handle the demands of contemporary computing tasks with ease.
In conclusion, Commodore OS is a delightful blend of old and new, offering a unique computing experience that appeals to both nostalgia seekers and modern users alike. With its atmospheric GUI and well-chosen selection of applications, it manages to capture the essence of the past while embracing the possibilities of the future. Whether you're a seasoned computing veteran or a newcomer looking for something different, Commodore OS is definitely worth exploring.
