De eerste versie van het Contiki operating systeem en desktop omgeving voor de Commodore 64 is uitgebracht. Contiki bevat een telnet client, een web server, een web browser en is geschikt om op internet te werken. Contiki is niet alleen geschikt voor de Commodore 64 maar ook voor andere 8-bit systemen zoals onder andere de VIC-20.
Contiki was originally written for the Commodore 64 system (1 MHz 8-bit 6510 CPU, 64 k RAM) but ports to a lot of systems are currently being developed by a bunch of developers: 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment system, PCEngine, Gameboy, Atari 8-bit, Atari Jaguar, Atari Lynx, Apple ][, VIC-20, CBM PET, Plus/4, Tandy CoCo, Sharp Wizard, Casio PocketViewer, Sega DreamCast and the Sony Playstation.
The first version of Contiki includes the following: * Multi-tasking kernel. * Windowing system and themeable GUI toolkit. * Screen-saver. * TCP/IP stack for Internet networking, either with RS-232/SLIP or Ethernet (PPP is under development). * Personal webserver for convenient file transfer. (Only in the C64/TFE version.) * Simple telnet client. (Only in the RS232/SLIP version.) * Web browser for Internet web surfing. (Worlds first web browser for 8-bit systems!
