Might be old news, may be new news, who knows. But here's the link for all interested

Good idea? Bad Idea?

edit: cited slightly more credible news source

Hmmm cute idea. I have been wondering for a while why all in one keyboards havn't been bought out, well apparently they have just been working on it. I wouldn't go out of my way to get one but if they were cheap I might.

 

[Soulgaunt]

Hmm....interesting.
Edit: (Hit post on accident.) Well then, I'll wait until I hear more about this.

probably a false alarm.

this...this brings tears of nostalgia to mine eyes....want...want so bad

I never really comm-adored the old things, but it is kinda cool that they're making a comeback.
I think I'd get a little keyboard of a QWERTY computer, but hey, it might sell.

Ah, the rose-tint of mine spectacles. Sadly, I believe they will lead me to a waste of my money again.

It doesn't actually look that much like C64. Can't work out why they would put a touch pad on it as well. I can understand that they are using laptop components but that is just not appropriate.

The idea of a pc built into a keyboard, maybe a lapboard, that you can plug into a HDTV is interesting.

...hang on...

...that's just a laptop without a screen.

Huh.

 

[Summerstorm]

Ah... too bad... i thought maybe somebody produced a cheap old C64, but maybe somehow able to access a mass storage device (So you can pirate insane amounts of old stuff and have fun FOREVER) for cheap, but it is just a laptop without a screen.

But at least it is a good idea for some people. Nice to see something at least slightly different.

But seriously: I would pay 50 bucks or so for a brand new C64 *g*
