New Breadbin cases
Just in case someone missed it:

With the usual warnings: might be scam, will probably be very late, shipping and VAT is unknown etc. |

For pixelling with the cursor keys, I always found the C64C keyboard a lot more comfortable than the breadbin one. Nothing beats a C128D keyboard resting in my lap, though.
I do like the colours they've picked, the purple and green cases are extremely tempting, and the blue/red/clear options are nice as well, but I'm worried about the shipping costs. |

Quoting ChristopherJamFor some of us, it would make for much lower shipping :D

Quoting ChristopherJam...
It's a shame they went for the inferior vic-20 style case though, ...
Though I loved my C64C in the 80s, I learned to prefer the breadbin cases because the flat case can get you in trouble with some modifications

What I don't get is why they picked the dull grey F-keys instead of the fancy orange ones which provide the true (Sesame) Street Credibility |

OMG! If you haven't already clicked that link, then DON'T DO IT!!
I just watched a lyrics breakdown of the classic "Hotel California" by the Eagles and it very much reminds me of what happened when i clicked that link a above. I short, it looks harmless and appealing at the beginning but you can never make the things you have seen *unseen*.. it may be too late when (if) you finally decide to leave. |

That bad? :)
I never understood the appeal of colourful mods, blinkenlights or perversely exposed circuitry via transparent cases... but whatever floats their boat, i guess? =) If anything, you can spot lamers easier by just looking at their gear. :D |

Hm, this looks better than the video! That said I probably prefer textured even for transparent...
Still Ultimate YAWN? |
