Barry Altman, president and chief executive of Commodore USA, announced the release of a brand new version of the old Commodore 64 that will ship to stores later this month.
Altman promises his revamp will be “as close to the original in design as humanly possible,” adding, “thirty years ago computers were an all-in-one product, with the keyboard, memory and components built inside. Over the years that has changed, and we believe there is a huge potential to revive the early format.”
For a $250 to $900 price tag, consumers will get a PC with a 1.8 gigahertz dual processors, built-in ethernet and HDMI ports, and an optional Blu-ray player.
