http://www.c64upgra.de/c-one/ Don't you wish there was a Commoodre 8-bit machine for the new millennium? You know one that can use 64 software but also can run 20 times faster, have super high resolution graphics, a more robust SID (16 SID, 8 DMA voices), and interfaces to hook up to a hard drive or possibly ethernt? Jeri Ellsworth's C-One is that machine, still in development, but prototypes are proving the naysayers wrong!
