In a blast from the past, the iconic Commodore 64 is back, not as a retro console, but as a fully functional PC. The Commodore 64x, unveiled recently, marries the classic C64 design with modern PC components, offering a unique blend of nostalgia and functionality. The C64x sports the familiar beige case and keyboard of the original Commodore 64, but inside, it's a different beast. Powered by an Intel Core i5 processor and featuring 8GB of RAM, the C64x can handle modern computing tasks with ease. It also includes a 512GB solid-state drive for fast storage and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card for smooth visuals. "We wanted to create a machine that would appeal to both retro enthusiasts and modern PC users," said a spokesperson for the company behind the C64x. "The C64x is a conversation starter, a piece of computing history that can also handle your everyday computing needs." The C64x comes with Commodore OS Vision, a Linux-based operating system designed to evoke the look and feel of the original Commodore 64's operating system. It also includes a suite of pre-installed software, including a web browser, office suite, and games. The C64x is available for purchase (if you can get one - out of stock everywhere) with prices starting at $AU1000 While it's not the cheapest PC on the market, the C64x is sure to appeal to those who want a unique and stylish computer that pays homage to one of the most iconic computers of all time. This could be your new replacement for your old Windows 10 PC. Ep297 Image Source from Supplier: https://www.mini-itx.com/
