that silver one looks ugly
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;29036811]Get old, broken C64 Install a miniATX Be coolest person in world[/QUOTE] I should totally do that! I have a C64 with a broken Graphics chip.
The Vic-Slim seems quite nice as a space-saving computer, looks incredibly thin, I thought it was just a keyboard at first in fact. [IMG]http://www.commodoreusa.net/j/VIC-SlimMonitorWeb.jpg[/IMG] :science:
Buy one, and do some DIY to make it look like the Original. Become best person on the Internet.
[quote]It’s like time is collapsing. A Commodore 64 has, well, 64K of memory. Not 2,097,152K. That would be a Commodore 2097152.[/quote] :frog:

I was too young for the C64, but I genuinely want to give this a spin
Google "commodore 64 emulator", exactly the same thing as this.
They sell the case by itself as well, for $250. Seems a tad steep to me, even if it does have a mechanical keyboard.

[QUOTE=nikomo;29055539]Google "commodore 64 emulator", exactly the same thing as this.[/QUOTE] Yes, an emulator is exactly the same as a fully functional computer. No.
Seems like building your own rig would be the smartest way to go, these are pretty over priced.
[QUOTE=HyoMonkys;29071451]Seems like building your own rig would be the smartest way to go, these are pretty over priced.[/QUOTE] These are computers in a keyboard, seems pretty fair to me. They are space saves not gaming rigs.

[/quote] Like people buying netbooks, they are going to try anyways with horrible results. Edit: [img]http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/images/11/apr/comm.jpg[/img] ..The computer is not even switched on, let alone plugged in. (should be two cables minimum, not one) You gotta love 80's adverts.
Meh. I'd rather have an original C64. :v:
Ye.. Ok i'll just go play my original C64. Horrible price tag.
When I was little my uncle let me play on his C64. All I remember was that I turned it on and watched it blink and flash and then I went on and played Zelda on the SNES.

Lol avast. No wonder you are...
FUCKING WANT [highlight]NOW[/highlight] I have a PC already but holy shit the keyboard sounds amazing. And you can install Windows 7. Holy goddamn shit. [editline]11th April 2011[/editline] I'm sorry but it looks so vintage that my nerd sense is tingling. [editline]11th April 2011[/editline] The keyboard has Cherry switches. Fuck you all this is awesome
