According to an ex-Commodore engineer I used to correspond
with, they were one and the same thing, as Commodore never did more
than rebadge a few for display at one of the big computer shows in
Germany. He said he was the one who purchased one from the Bytec
distributor in the UK around Christmas 1982 for consideration as
Commodore's first MS-DOS machine. They decided against using it due
to servicing difficulties but since their x86 machine wasn't ready
yet they displayed a few anyway in early '83 (CeBIT in Hanover i
believe).
