THE ANCIENT Commodore 64 is back from the dead and like all good zombies it is apparently "better than ever".

The new Commodore 64 features a design that mimics the classic machine, but the computer will actually be functional in modern terms with current applications thanks to a mini-ITC motherboard, a dual-core Intel 525 Atom processor, between 2GB and 4GB of DDR3 RAM and an Nvidia Ion2 graphics chipset.

The C64 is still very popular, you should see the various forums out there. People are still writing new games/code for various software and hardware. I had a C64 back in the day and we got our monies worth out of it. I eventually got a PC in the early 90's then the C64 went into storage. I pulled it out maybe 5 years ago and they (2 C64's) no longer worked. I tossed those, but I still have 2 disk drives, power supplies, 1802 monitor and a bunch of games on floppies and some in their original boxes.
