So, Commodore will be releasing the C=64C Ultimate.

This actually has me thinking of possibly putting down the money to buy one to use as a terminal to call my BBS and development!

I always did like the C style case.

Or maybe I should hold out for a future C=128 Ultimate?

I hope they make a 128! I still want an original for my collection, but a the convenience of a U would be great.

I'd buy one. Though I wanted one so bad, I never aquired one. As weird as it seems today, I thought they were too expensive AND I loved my C=64. :-)

The C128 was a computer without a direction.

It was a C64 - which is probably what most people used it for - with all
the limitations of a C64.

It was a CP/M machine - at a time when CP/M was on the downward spiral.
And you needed the special, faster floppy drives to make it work
decently, which made the C128 more expensive than other CP/M systems.

And it was a C128 - with 80 columns, updated BASIC, etc. But they
didn't give it enough video RAM to get all the colors in 80 column mode.
So you were stuck using it in monochrome mode.

I am 45 now so EVERYTHING was too expensive for me back then LOL. I was enjoying the CoCo2 at my house and the TI-99/4A at my grandfather's. My aunt and uncle had an IBM XT, and when he brought a Macintosh II home from his office, MY MIND WAS BLOWN. Memories of that Mac is what made me start vintage collecting with Macs. I love getting to experience alternate childhoo realities today!

... Won spell Czecker, works grate! $5 oar best offer.

Sorry, I was the guy who always said Commodore was much better than the Mac, IBM any anything else out there. Then I was left standing in the rain when Commodore gave up on me.
