Introducing the New Commodore 64
If this had a SID chip (or multiple!) in it, I'd buy one in a heartbeat. As it stands, it's just a straight up PC with... a C64 emulator.

If your primary interest in the C64 is to play with the SID, why not forgo the C64 emulator and form factor and use a dedicated SID based MIDI synthesizer (e.g.

)?

I bought a HardSID 4U because I'm not a soldering kind of guy:

Oh, I know. There's also hardSID and all those, but this would be appealing with that one simple addition.

And, it's missing the original C64 game ports (like Atari joystick ports), which had OUTPUT capability!
