    Even without the possibility of a new Commodore64 being produced, I would think there would be quite a market for just the new chips such as the SID and VIC II. As supplies have dried up, leading to people canabalizing what would otherwise be repairable machines.

    What about a Commodore 128, or 65s?

    I would actually like to see a Hybrid TED, the increased color pallet and UARTS on the serial bus plus memory would be an interesting BBS machine..

    I def would love to see 128 gets some retro love. I mean I love the Vic 20 and the 64 but I loved the 128 using CPM on as well.

    Hello Barry!

    30 Jun 25 17:07, you wrote to Mortar M.:

    I cant wait to see how it pans out, bringing Commodore back officially
    is gonna be awesome. Been watching Peri's vids for years and love everything he does.

    Yeah I watched the news .. as ex-employee of Tulip Computers NV I was involved with the
    Commodore E-vic (the MP3 player) and saw that they changed the logo (Ugh .. ) And saw the C64DTV joystick being sold in the US when the brand was licensed..

    After that a lot of things happened .. but than it was already of my desk ;)

    ... I don't troubleshoot; I blame the vendor.

    For the most part, so do I, but format-wise, I prefer his earlier vids.
