She is one of the few old-era OS-tans that still has market potential. The C64 Direct-to-TV, a video game system developed by Jeri Ellsworth, has sold well on QVC, whose offices are now in Commodore International's old headquarters. Ellsworth also developed the C-One, a single-board microcomputer initially created in 2002 as an enhanced Commodore 64 home computer, but has been reengineered to allow cloning of other 8-bit computers.  Paralleling this, Commodore 64-tan is also an inventor (albeit in the antiquated sense) and self-proclaimed genius, and also build the android C-One-tan.

The present-day C64-tan can best be described as both pleasant and practical when involved in day-to-day matters; but she does turn bratty, sarcastic, condescending and/or distracted when it comes to matters of gaming or technology.  However, C64-tan in her prime was strict, ambitious and highly-proud of her role commanding the flagship of the Commodore armada.  It is for this reason that she never liked and frequently despised her cheery and easygoing stepsister AmigaOS-tan, who she blamed unfairly for her company's demise.  This animosity has long been put aside, and both are now very close and loving sisters.
