Gawd... now there's a business to inspire confidence blurry pictures and best of all for such a "serious" business they even give little old me a mention...

Geezus... now I'm confused, Barry Boy has either done too much coke (and not the Zero type) or he actually has a sense of humour...

PS: You didn't need to make the stickers "Franko Proof" I can buy much better quality ones on eBay...

(blurry picture of C64x) "Take a closer look."
(somehow even blurrier picture of C64x) "I said 'take a closer look.'"
Well, gee, I looked, but whatever subtle production nuance you were intending to point out seems to have gotten lost in the blur...

Also, nice particle-board office furniture. Was Home Depot having a sale?

LOL. Cheers Spammy for those pics (and is there a reason why you couldn't just add this to the existing VIC assembly line thread?), you have shown that the "Commodore HQ, assembly center and shop" is a tiny sub-let in a cheapo mall area where tiny businesses open up an inexpensive office (as opposed to building and buying something). So what is this costing a month to rent? $1000? I hope you sell 5 C64x units to cover it.

A multi-million dollar company doesn't do business from a shack. The more you try to impress the more it all goes wrong.

A better inspection of the buesiness shows that Commodore HQ has an office for 2 people, a store cupboard and a small classroom area for applying stickers to keyboards.

Poor buggers don't even have a toilet!

LOL. With a free can of furniture polish and 90 days no-interest credit!

It looks like such a happy place to work. And then kill yourself.

You know, the reason Spammy posts these things with a link to CommodeDoorUSA's web****e is so that we register as "viewers" and BtB can point to this and tell people it demonstrates just how many people are interested in his products.

Surely they should have a security guard at the front door to keep the angry mob (all two of em) of pre-order customers descending on the place to demand their money back for non-shipped items...

You could use the mouse cord that comes with the C64x... Oh, sorry, no you cant!
