I knew straight away it was some kind of AROS/Linux rubbish.

@Franko-as for ripping off Cloanto, well they didn't write WinUAE and any additions they made to it make it harder to use than the 'free' version called WinUAE so I couldn't give a crap about that scumbag company.

I don't see where they have made anything to sell yet.  The preproduction pictures of the cloned C64 case looks like a toy of very poor quality that even if I were an old C64 user, would never buy.


Well if he had produced the keyboard EXACTLY as in the renders ie a real C64 keyboard clone then I might consider it. Especially if you could use 9 pin joysticks on it etc.

As it stands the keyboard looks fud and you will need USB joysticks (all crap).

Oh and he chose the wrong case, the original case design looks inferior to the 64C mk2 version IMO.

Again if he reproduced the Amiga keyboard perfectly (screw Apple/Microsoft users wanting their own keys on keyboard) and a 9pin joystick interface like Stelladaptor inside I would be happier.

His 30 million budget is not enough to do this, as I suspect a budget of 30 million russian potatoes = £234.71p in reality ;)

Maybe when we see the Commodore USA adverts on TV all will become clear...no wait there won't be any! :roflmao:
