C-One production started

[System]

After more than two years development time, the C-One production has started. It'll start selling on may 5th in Germany and the Netherlands. Our other European partners should have the boards by May 9th, when the board will also be launched in North America.

Many projects have dealt with re-configurable computers so far, but none of them is as consistent and flexible as the C-One. Other projects only kept parts of the hardware re-configurable, but the C-One can change the behaviour of it's chipset even during runtime. Therefore, the C-One is the world's first re-configurable computer. Read more on the official homepage of the C-One: www.c64upgra.de/c-one

Cool and cool again!

Do we have any prices yet?

I might just get myself one of these. :-)

[filson]

nice little board for loads of purposes. :-)

[Crumpster]

Nice one!!!!

This seriously rocks.

249 Euro's!!!!!! That's about £170ish.

WOW :-o :-o :-o

[Calen]

Seems like a nice price, looks forward to hearing more about this new h/w

[redrumloa]

Yow!! I already am out of desk space!! Good news though! I still want serial #00001:-)
Desk:
PC - Pegasos - C=1

I need to finish my new desk project REAL SOON:-D

[amigamad]

Thats great news i like the look of the C-One nice to see something new other than a1 or pegasos . :-)

I just reread the disclaimer, Jeri sure is getting more creative by the day!!

If you have any doubts, don't buy now. Only buy after all doubts are gone. And again: Only buy for what the machine is at the time of your order. Do not buy it for something it might become in the future, because our plans might change without notice:

if you want to run CP/M, wait until the Z80 CPU module and the corresponding CBIOS is available.
if you want to run C64 games and demos cycle-accurate, wait until the 6502 module is available.
if you want to use it as VIC-20, wait until the VIC-20 core is available.
if you want to use it as PET, wait until the PET core is available.
if you want to use it as Ohio Scientific Challenger, wait until the Challenger core is available.
if you want to use it as ZX-81, wait until the doorstop core is available.
if you want to use it as ZX Spectrum, wait until the Speccy core is available.
if you want to use it as Apple II (e, GS), wait until the Apple II core is available.
if you want to use it as a dual-monitor system, wait until the secondary monitor adapter is available.
if you want to play Atari 2600 games, wait until the Atari 2600 core is available.


That's more than I knew she had planned!! :-o :-o

Can I ask what anyone is going to use one of these commodore one's for?

I was hoping for some of the above list.

Perhaps I should calm down. :-D

Dual monitors?!?!

:-o :-o :-o :-o :-o


:-D :-D

For fun of course! :-)

And perhaps some education. This is perhaps not state of the art hardware when speaking about MHz. But it *is* state of the art in creative and exciting HW design. I´m also looking forward to learn some about FPGA's. :-)

[takemehomegrandma]

This picture (http://c64upgra.de/) shows the spirit of it! :-D

And I think I remember that it will actually be possible to fit the motherboard inside an authentic C64 case (if you have one). Cool! :-)

[Tomas]

does it have any kind of tvout capabilitites?

[CD32Freak]

Go Jeri! http://amiga.org/images/subject/icon14.gif :-)

[ottomobiehl]

Way to go.

One of my favorite computers is reborn (so to speak.) :-)

[ottomobiehl]

Sorry to burst your bubble but it looks as if it will fit in an ATX style case. Though it would be nice to be able to put it in your old C=64 style case. :-)

[Methuselas]

I have to admit this is pretty trick. :-D

[ikir]

Eh eh eh :-D
