    I'll just start telling people to buy Compaq, HP, or like...Alienware or something.

    You do realize that Dell owns Alienware right? Alienware = Overpriced Dell

    Just tell them to get a Commodore...you can't really beat two Nvidia 8800GTX cards in SLI mode. :)

    This Case says it all

    As a long time Commodore Fan it just makes me want to cry. :-( Though I think those who think Skateboard deck art is really cool will love it.

    I was a big fan of the iMac flavors and Blue/Wite & Grey G3s and G4s, this new monoskin instead of a two-tone case look is really lousy looking (I always wished they did a ruby iMac with Chromed speaker grills and black trim.... sweeet.).

    I noticed the options were United Kingf\dom and nothing else for country.

    "...but do they even produce the mainboard PCB itself?"

    NOPE. Emphasis mine.

    Okay, so the "Classic" skins are fugly. But check out some of the other ones in the C-Kin library. I wouldn't mind having this one grace my compy at all.

    I love the modular case design. It won't be long until users begin creating their own C-kin panels.

    We need more information in the about us section:

    Having acquired the Commodore brand in late 2005 as part of a joint venture with Commodore International Corporation, Commodore Gaming aims to re-establish the brand as a leader in its industry. Who was it that ponied up the cash to buy the old C= logo? Are they at all related (by blood or money) to the people who drove CBM into the ground? How is CIC related to the former CBM? Are they interacting with the current owners of Amiga Technologies (if that still exists)? How long until they make laptops?

    I want one... or four.
  9. Wha? by AKAImBatman · · Score: 5, Insightful · on The Commodore Comeback at CeBIT

    The high-end XX packs enough grunt to make an Alienware machine run to its deformed alien mum.

    Alienware is not a serious competitor. At least not any longer. They're just another Dell brand.

    Also, it's probably worth noting that the really high end systems are often hand-built. That way you can get both the hardware you want, and the case design you want. Many of the 'Gaming PCs' tend to be targeted at the market of wannabes who have too much money and not enough sense.

    Commodore uses what it calls a 'revolutionary painting process' to make them look pretty damn gorgeous.

    I'm so sorry, am I missing something here? Because "pretty damn gorgeous" is not how I'd describe these machines. "Pretty damn hideous" is a bit closer. "Treading on someone else's memories and goodwill to make a buck" is even better. "Looking li-"

    OMFG! What the hell is that Giana Sisters skin!?!?! ('scuse me, C-Kin)

    My beautiful sisters! What has become of you!?! I... I... I...

    I think I need to go now. If you'll pardon me. I... need to find the nearest restroom before I hurl.
