The X68000 (エックスろくまんはっせん Ekkusu Rokuman Hassen?) is a home computer created by Sharp, first released in 1987, sold only in Japan.

The first model featured a 10 MHz Motorola 68000 CPU (hence the name), 1 MiB of RAM, and no hard drive; the last model was released in 1993 with a 25 MHz Motorola 68030 CPU, 4 MiB of RAM, and optional 80 MB SCSI hard drive. RAM in these systems is expandable to 12 MiB, though most games and applications did not require more than two.

  • XM6 TypeG refuses to run unless it is on a genuine Japanese Windows installation. Others have edited it to remove this DRM.
