And the Commodore 64 is BACK also. It's not some cheap pI based Emulation machine. It is a FPGA machine which re-creates the C64 perfectly. If anyone knows Gideon has been selling FPGA boards called the Ultimate 64, a few of the features are built in Swiftlink, WiFi, 40mhz speed, Sid Sockets and built in Sid if you can't scavenge the real chips. Full HDMI, I have had a U64 since 2019, I don't use it all that much but it is one awesome machine.. If you were a Commodorephile like I was and still am for $300 it is a great deal...
