WANT. NOW.

<< < (4/10) > >>

fallacy:
Dear god could someone please link me to some of these awesome Commodore 64 games that are making you people so nostalgic because I just don’t get it.

MacGyver:
I think they should have taken some creative license and put in a number keypad.  Hell they should have made it a hexadecimal keypad.  Hell they should should sell it as a Commodore 64 look-a-like USB keyboard, with a hexadecimal keypad.
Ok, maybe all I really want is a keyboard with a hex keypad, but is that so wrong?  You try imputing MAC addresses and IPV6 IPs all day long without one and see how crazy it makes you.  :banghead:

But seriously, it would have given it a whole "80's programmer" vibe if it had one.

LeedsFan:
I suppose as a dedicated emulation machine it would be pretty cool. It was just the prices that surprised me a little. But then again if someone really wants something cool/different/unique then it's money well spent. What's that processor like? Intel Atom D525 1.8 GHz dual core?

I can haz one? I doubt you have a spare monitor to go with it.  The C64 was my first computer

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.

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

But it is not a laptop (No screen or battery)  A fast mini itx board in an enclosure with the same accessories would be half the price.  ::)
