New run of C64C casing coming in three colors
I knew someone bought the C64C molds a while back and now it appears we'll be able to get white, blue, or red cases if this Kickstarter is funded.

Quote:Somehow I doubt he'd sell anywhere near 10 000 units even at half that price. The target audience for this kind of hardware is just too small.
i wonder where this number comes from.... (none of these retro products made these days go anyway near that number) |

I just picked a number that is waaay above any reasonable sale estimates, and still in the lower end of what I would call "for the masses." The point being, it's not really the price that precludes it from becoming a mass market product. |

These aren't mine, waiting for the clear cases to go through the molds again after the fire. |

Nice! I hope they will keep on producing - dropped Douglas a msg on fb a while ago, basically to order 3 cases, but never heard back so far... Of course he must be very busy now. |
