Holy Heck!  That's $7,422 USD!  And it really isn't useable.  I remember one going last year for over a grand on eBay, but seriously.:insane:

The previous C65 went for $7625 USD and it was missing chips.

LOMBARD? I have never heard of that before. Interesting...

Bogan is my favourite word ;)

Yep Bogan is a really great word I just never knew it's origins and yet I grew up in that very era. Maybe the drinking had something todo with not remembering it's origins.

This one is interesting:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Commodore-Amiga-4000-A4000-68040-/321107897291

He states a left-click of the mouse causes a Guru.  While I'm not going to be buying this, I'm intrigued by the idea of what could cause a crash like that from a simple mouse click.  Of course, I'm missing other information like the conditions under which it happens (in Workbench, in the Early Startup, and whatever.)  Anyone have ideas?

Personally, STUPID does it for me.

A prototype with no available software and limited C64 compatibility.

If I had the kind of money needed to have my ultimate commodore computer collection I don't think my collection could be complete without a c65 or an Amiga 3000+ (AAA powered prototype) and I would prolly pay silly money to get a working version of each.

Just out of curiosity, what would you do with them once you collected them considering that you would have a plethora of more capable machines to run any software titles on that they could use?

Display them, I wouldn't use them very often, if at all.

When it comes to stuff like the c65 it's a museum piece really, the fact that it works is just a bonus.

Egads, you people are strange (hey, wait a minute, how much time do I spend on this website?).

If I had a working C65, I'd definitely sell it.
