A dream come true, or a hoax ?

Only one way to find out, order it!
Not sure I would call a PC in a C64-like case a dream come true exactly. But it's a lovely web page with transparent pictures and all. |

This looks pretty cool. Maybe all these retro fans and kids jump on the bandwagon and make the C= brand worldwide known AGAIN. |

Something very important is missing in the specifications list... a REAL SID chip! :-) |

Atom based, so it won't be enough to run Vice with resid-fp, I think. Hence, useless. ;-) |

All "Commodore revival" companies are vending nothing but bullshit and broken old dreams. Stick to the ones who actually deliver stuff that matters, like Jens and Gideon. |

There is no product here. The images are just concept renders. This company is doing nothing but burning through venture capital and then after they're done they'll leave the Commodore brand name in a worse state than it was before. |

These certainly aren't renders -> http://www.commodoreusa.net/CUSA_C64Prototype.aspx
Getting one or two prototypes made up like that isn't any real expense. I'd love to have one of those cases, fit a proper small motherboard in there, etc.
Like all recent incarnations of "Commodore" I don't expect anything besides off the shelf parts clones and lots of promises that fall short when they can't get funding to go beyond a few CNC'ed prototypes. |
