I don't recall what enrico said was the number of spectrums made, but the
varying reports of number of C64s made range from 17-22 million. I'll
leave the readers to draw their own conclusions so I don't have to endure
the wrath of enrico. (and yes, I know there are other computers in the
world... the statement here is 'most sold' and I'm assuming Commodore
sold most of the C64s they built.)
