Its really awesome but to me not MUCH different from what the atari VCS is doing (i have one) .
Except the FPGA. Cool.
Also fyi you can download and run commodore os on anything. Its a whopping 40 gigs though so get a big flash drive ! (Im old)
Its very fun to try out. Id definitely put it on a kid’s computer (i would have LOVED it at 10 years old)
40 fucking gigs???
Commodore OS Vision 3.0 is the largest, games oriented, Linux distribution ever produced, featuring 200+ free linux compatible games as well as an assortment of classic Commodore games and demos that will undoubtedly scratch your nostalgic itch.
Ah, that explains it. I wish they would use a more legible font on their forums
Yes, it packs in a LOT. Its really cool though.
Yes, I love the feel of it but its a bit hard to read haha
I ordered one. Excited to slap my real 6581 into it and hook it up to the good speakers.

I’m on the edge of buying one. I really want to buy one but dropping $600 on a commodore 64 is NOT what I should be doin right now.

Similar plus the issues of delivery to Russia and impending expenses at preventing like everything around me from crumbling plus creeping depression plus sick dog plus sister’s plans.
