Images of C64x Mold

I know I'm not the target for this, but I preferred the "A600" style case... That did exist? Right? My memory isn't what it used to be

In fact, an "A600" case with the guts of a MacMini would be pretty fun

They're working on something like that, albeit something more similar to A500(but with less depth)/A1200 then A600. It will be pretty powerful AFAIK, mobile i7 + (probably)midlevel nVidia gfx.
They are plans for something like Mac Mini too.

Forgot to add, there will be a C64Cx also... sometimes later this year or early next year, for those interested and more sympathetic to the C64C looks and functionality.

No. They haven't sold any yet.

There is no way they're going to sell 1000+ a day.

They would be very lucky to sell 1000 in a year.

They already sold them to distribution chains, on-line stores... why else do you think they are mass producing them in these numbers(1000 per day)?

It will be interesting to see how many people purchase this system. Since its not for sale yet, the real popularity isn't possible to estimate.
However, its definitely way more than 1000/year.
I hope they're shipping these with good C64 emulation software. That could add to the appeal.

As it stands now, C=OS(which will have emulation software) will not be ready for launch and these first examples will probably be shipped with Ubuntu 10.x. The owners of the early examples will be mailed their example of C=OS 1.0 when it's ready for release. AMIGAs will be on sale later in the year with probably C=OS 1.1

They're not producing any of them yet.

even if they are not, it's just a matter of days now

[WolfToTheMoon]

the cases look cool and I'd most likely buy the case only if available

yes, available on launch and it will be priced very decently
