Title: New Commodore 64 Post by: cbbama99 on May 07, 2011, 06:06:16 PM Someone who is more computer savvy than I please tell me what the new C'dore 64 offers. I saw the picture of one today and it looks exactly like the old one, with the exception of a disc drive. I assume that televisions will again be used as monitors? And who thought of repackaging this?

I would like one but being disabled it might be out of my price range. I'll have to trade my guitar for one maybe. lol. RTR!

Not worth the price though, it is a gimmick for all of the old school computer nerds who had one as a kid. I was too poor to pay the price back then, so I have no sentimental attachment. A TRS 80 though, now that might be something.
:D I couldn't afford one of those either but my cousin had one. I wrote my first programs on that little jewel.

Back then, those games seemed like they were just the greatest things ever.
