I had one back in the 80’s (don’t remember what year) and it was fun at the time. I even built my own rs232 port that plugged into the expansion slot on the back so I could send files (text mostly) back and forth between my Commodore and my ‘shoebox’ z80 computer.

But now that the dinosaurs have died, I need to move on.

It’s a full fledged Ubuntu installed 64 bit computer, OK it’s an underpowered Atom processor, but with a Linux you’ll hardly notice. Little bit of throwback decor never hurt anybody, and those games, some of the best games ever made were on the C64, haven’t seen a list of which ones they’re giving with the machine.
