With print-on-demand services and the dawn of 3D printing technology in mind, I'm hoping that low-cost solutions for shipping complete DIY (or pre-assembled) C65 kits will actually be viable - and that's where those comb bound manuals should prove valuable! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017745189504803687.post-82971458846915761332014-10-15T06:46:38.050+10:302014-10-15T06:46:38.050+10:30Hello,

So expect total cost to be between US$350 and US$800. But these are only wild estimates at this point in time.<br /><br />Paul.Paul Gardner-Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10150903760695355706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017745189504803687.post-75543234908572335422014-10-15T06:43:57.457+10:302014-10-15T06:43:57.457+10:30Thanks :)Thanks :)Paul Gardner-Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10150903760695355706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017745189504803687.post-61908008399538123002014-10-15T06:11:55.399+10:302014-10-15T06:11:55.399+10:30I second that - I follow every single blog post, a...I second that - I follow every single blog post, and I can't wait for the next progress update! I'd easily shell up some money for a finished C65 clone with Ethernet-connectivity, a C64/128-compatible keyboard and a plastic wedge case in classic Commodore pale-beige! Count me in if printed manuals for the finished product are on your agenda and you need a Swedish translation!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017745189504803687.post-59896044975631988352014-10-15T01:49:42.658+10:302014-10-15T01:49:42.658+10:30This is a very cool project.
