If you are as old as me, you probably remember the legendary Commodore 64...

It seems a reincarnation under the name of Commodore USA is trying to make history again.

See: http://www.commodoreusa.net/index.html

They even mention ability to run OSX but they "do NOT sell, install, support, promote, repair or deal in any way with products made by Apple" :rolleyes:

Note: I'm in no way related to them... I just used to envy the C64 sound system, when compared to the one on my Apple //e ;)

Hehe, well the C64 wasn't a beauty either... even for those times...

and hate the offset trackpad- why? :crazy:
Actually it ain't offset, just centered under the alpha section of the kbd...

It somehow reminds me the TI-99/4A... Just 30 years late :D

The new Commodore is laptop sans screen, pretty cool :thumbup:

My first computer was the VIC 20 :lol: Awesome machine, not.

Interesting, I think Amstrad did something similar 20yrs ago, afaik it was called EuroPC.

Anyway, this was my 1st computer:
