	Commodore computer history and repair information
		Commodore's most popular model, the Commodore 64, was the Model T Ford of the home computer movement.
		Commodore compatible floppy drives made by other manufacturers also emerged, but they were independently developed (for the most part) due to the fact that the Commodore 64 and 128 drives were "intelligent peripherals" possessing chips that Commodore had decided not to license or supply to its competitors.
		Commodore even developed an incredible interactive stand-alone CD unit (based on the Amiga technology) called the CDTV which (along with Philips CDI) were the predecessors to many of the CD-based interactive game systems which followed.

	Commodore - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki
		Most typically, the title "commodore" was associated with a distinct rank between captain and Rear Admiral; officers of this rank might serve as senior captains of important ships, or else could command flotillas, squadrons, or task forces, usually under superior flag officers.
		The title of commodore has a complex real-world history, beginning during the Anglo-Dutch wars of the seventeenth century, when the title of "commander" was accorded by both sides to a senior captain commanding a detached squadron where no Admiral was present.
		Since the 1980s, "commodore" has also been used semi-formally as a title for senior captains commanding squadron-strength forces of ships, or wings of aircraft, and it is this usage that is now current.
