News from Jens Schonfeld of
Individual Computers.:
After a pause of several years, fans of classic computers worldwide can look forward to a series of Commodore PCs. The company "individual Computers GmbH," based in Germany and well-known in the Retro-Computing community, has licensed the rights of the Commodore trademarks from Polabe Holding N.V.
The first newly branded Commodore products are span-new cases for the C64 computer, using the original injection molds back from the days Commodore Business Machines produced the C64c. Thanks to these new cases a C64 computer can finally be refurbished after all these years. Distribution of these cases is exclusively done via the online shop of Return-Magazine.
With these new c64-Cases, the highest quality standards had to be guaranteed, in line with the high expectations of the name Commodore.
And apparently this is just the beginning:
Back in May 2015, the new main board C64 Reloaded (C64R) was released by hardware designer Jens Schönfeld and this with a huge success. This main board fits in any C64-case and is fully compatible with the original C64 computer. Two new versions of this main board are now being prepared for production. Technical details will be published shortly.
