You can't even update Commodore OS now..
There was only two things I liked from them..

1 C64x(I wouldn't buy one to pricey,I have a c64 Keyrah now,thanks to Cheese on the Commodore-Amiga Forum)
2 Commodore OS (still a 32 bit version out and being updated,I made a copy of it so it would work on 32bit and to see how easy it was,something to do I suppose.lol)
When they started doing Amiga's it was getting to be abit of a joke.(Pc in a chinees pc case with a Amiga,C= Badges on)..mmm

What going to happen to C= OS Now..??


It's just Linux Mint using Gnome 2 with some Compiz effects etc. (http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=commodore).

If you are that keen there is nothing to stop you from grabbing Linux Mint with the Mate desktop and taking the existing customisations and applying the to the newer versions of Linux Mint. Linux Mint comes in 32bit and 64bit flavours.

Thanks for pointing that out. I will have to look into it a bit more.

It would have been nice to get the embossed AMIGA logo on the front of it. Wasn't to fussed on the Commodore logo though.


You could pay someone to engrave the case.

You can get a c64 on ebay for 30 or 40 bucks. Add the pc keyboard adapter from amigakit, your own motherboard... Thats what I would do if I wanted a c64 pc...


Yeah I know thanks, I've hacked a few 64's in my time. I wanted the 64x because of what it is, and add one to my collection.

I don't see it as collection-worthy.  What piques your interest?

It's a novelty and I kind of like it, just not the price.

Thanks for that, I've dropped them a mail to see if it's still available. 400 euros though, that's a worse exchange than dollars.



Color me curious. Have you received a response yet?

@Dr.Bongo

Noticed this post from a few days ago:

Even the Ami site in Italy has removed all of the products from their store.

So, did you order and can you confirm this?
