Title: FS: Commodore Netbook "Prototype"
Post by: tone007 on July 18, 2011, 02:25:30 PM

OK, so it's really just a rebranded Chinese system like the rest of nouveau C=, but there weren't a whole lot of them made with the C= logo!  (Manufacturing sample.)

Specs:

Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz
1GB RAM (upgradeable to 2GB)
160GB hard drive
9" screen
built in webcam
2 USB 2.0 ports
Ethernet port
WiFi
VGA out
SD/MMC card slot
3400mAH battery (roughly 3 hours of runtime)
Commodore branding!
Dual booting Windows XP and Ubuntu (ran Win7 fine when I had it on there, though.)

Nice shape, very little use. Good sized keyboard (way more usable than the older EeePC ones.)  Only issue is the left plastic hinge cover is loose, though it won't come off unless you open the screen fully and pull it out.

Interesting item. Was this released by Commodore International? The same guys who did the Gravel.

It's from the same group who got people excited a couple of years ago about Commodore Netbooks. http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10029963-1.html

It was a big tease, they never went into full "production" and sold off sample units on eBay a while back.  This is the last one I have.

Do you have the box for it still? Out of curiosity, what does it look like?

I'll check.  One of them had an all-white box and one had one printed up Commodore style, I forget which was which..

Couldn't find a box, I think it was probably the plain white one and I tossed it.

New price, $120 plus shipping!
