Are you ready to start rocking your next Commodore PC? The company on Wednesday announced that they are now taking $595 pre-orders for their upcoming C64 unit.
The new system provides customers with a 1.8GHz dual-core Intel Atom D525 chip, while providing a NVIDIA ION 2 GPU. Also included is a 160GB hard drive with 2GB RAM. Essentially users are buying a netbook without the display or if you’d rather a desktop without the tower.
The company says the units will also offer premium features which includes upgrades for 2 more gigabytes RAM, a Blu-Ray drive and up to 1TB storage. Users can also grab 802.11 b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity.
If you don’t want a bulky “Retro” keyboard such as the one show above, the company has also introduced the VIC-Slim at $395, although specifics are not quite forthcoming.
Commodore promises to begin shipping pre-ordered units by “early June” 2011.
