Wow, $5,999... the C on the side of the chassis isn't for "Commodore", it's for "Conspicuous Consumption"...

Nice! I always have wanted to play C64 DigDug with $6000 computer. Och and how well does this play GiJoy and Rambo the First Blood! Have to get this so I can play all those good ole games again ;-)

Look at the their website. This C-Kin technology allows customers to "print" virtually anything on their cases. Some suggested models are awesome. I agree that beige cases belomgs to the past but some people are just nostalgic. It's also a bit funny to see something so performing in an old school design. Like stripping apart a Wii and fitting it in a NES.

Whenever I see anything from Commodore Gaming these days, it makes me think of this article.

I would love one of those beige chassis! not because it's good looking, but because it reminds me of my childhood! I just can't convince myself to pay over 3k for a system I can build myself.

Wow... Commodore was known for its low-cost computers back in its day. With the original C=64 costing about $500.

Not a single Amiga computer (16/32PC with multi-tasking since 1985) every cost $5000!
