The Telmac TMC-600[1] was a Finnish microcomputer[2] introduced in 1982 by Telercas Oy,[3] a Finnish importer of RCA microchips.[4][5]

Only 600 units were produced, making it very rare today.[6] The TMC-600 was the only commercially available BASIC-based home computer designed and manufactured in Finland.[2]
