'''Galeb''' ({{literal translation|seagull}}) was an [8-bit](/source/8-bit) [computer](/source/computer) developed by the PEL Varaždin company in [Yugoslavia](/source/Yugoslavia) in the early 1980s.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Galeb PEL Varazdin |url=https://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?st=1&c=1048 |access-date=2023-07-21 |website=www.old-computers.com}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Kovač |first=Robert |date=2005 |title=Galeb Opis |url=https://starine.rkovac.com/index.php?id=43 |access-date=2023-08-17 |website=Računalniške starine|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930021209/https://starine.rkovac.com/index.php?id=43 |archive-date=2007-09-30 }}</ref> A grand total of 250 were produced by the end of the summer of 1984, before being replaced with the [Orao](/source/Orao_(computer)).<ref name=":0" />

Galeb was very similar to computers that inspired it:
