Thank goodness for that - the original C-64 is terrible to type on.
BobA:
At these prices I definitely DO NOT WANT ONE.
The C64x can be had in five confusing configurations. The Barebones model is nothing more than the case and keyboard with a card reader and costs $250. The cheapest working version is the C64x Basic at almost $600, and to get luxuries such as Wi-Fi and a DVD drive you’ll need to cough up $700. If you’re in for that much, then you may as well jump all the way and spend $900 on the Ultimate edition, which puts in a 1-TB hard drive, a Blu-ray drive and 4 GB RAM.
Tumerboy:
Meh, I still think it's cool, and would be awesome to have as a dedicated emulation machine.
Thenasty:
I still have 5 maybe 6 c64 in the garage. Modding one is probably easy but the keyboardmight be problem.

Whats wrong with the prices? Those are fairly standard laptop price points.
