Jim,
I examined several C-65 machines while visiting CEI on business last year. No,
nothing to do with purchasing Commodore. From what I could tell, it was
completed. It sported a front mounted 3.5" floppy disk drive and I believe, a
faster 8 MHz 6502 CPU. Regretfully, I didn't have time to plug one in and see
if it booted.
As to a market for this machine, I believe that South America, Eastern Europe
and the former Soviet Bloc are potential markets. China or any other nation
that has a 3000+ character set language, would probably not be suitable as a
front-end engine would easily overwhelm the resources of the computer.
Regards,
John Chang
