Note the rightmost picture of the three is the original 1982 Commodore 64. Given the processor this houses, it will be interesting to see how far it can be overclocked (assuming the motherboard allows this) especially given the heat dissipation limitations of the retro case.

It even has the option to boot right into the original C64's full screen READY prompt (left), where you can also launch classic games.Click here to see the C64x Extreme product page. The company is also working on a custom operating system, called OS Vision, explaining simply: Commodore OS Vision (due for release shortly) allows you to play all your favorite 8-bit era games with a single click. Instead, it comes with Linux Mint 11 preinstalled.

It's important to note that this price doesn't include Windows 7 - that has to be sourced separately by the customer. More than likely the price is this high, because of low volume production and the nostalgia factor. This new version costs a not inconsiderable $1499, but the company justifies this by comparing it to the Mac Mini, which doesn't seem a completely convincing argument, since these are aimed at different markets. Video connectivity is looked after by HDMI, DVI-D and VGA outputs. The back panel has the following ports: legacy PS/2, USB 2.0 x5 (one eSATA combo) USB 3.0 x2, Ethernet and three audio jacks. This version is the C64x Extreme (model number: C64x-EX) which includes a 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7-2720QM CPU, mini-ITX motherboard and PSU, 8 GB DDR3 RAM, DVD writer (slot loading) 2 TB 7200 RPM HDD, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. However, Commodore USA has now upgraded their offering with a considerably more powerful CPU. A barebones version is available for $349 without a motherboard, just the keyboard and case, allowing the customer to add their own hardware into the retro box. This PC, called the C64x Ultimate (model number: C64x-UL) included a dual core Atom D525, NVIDIA Ion 2 graphics, 4 GB RAM and a 1 TB hard drive. Since last summer, they have been selling a replica for $999 powered by an Intel CPU.

For a while now, replica C64 models, packed with the latest PC technology, have been made by Commodore USA, a different company that has purchased the original Commodore brand. The original 8-bit Commodore 64 computer was very popular in the early 1980s, but the original company eventually closed down in the 1990s, having launched their 16-bit Amiga range in the meantime as the C64s successor.
