The Intel Atom architecture is very neat. They can really fit it into just about anything.

I cant imagine that this is the same Commodore?

It's more like a netbook in the original Commodore 64 casing, with Workbench 5 and a BASIC OS emulator pre-installed.

How do you hook this up to your TV? That was the neat thing about the Trash80 and the Commodore. No need for a special monitor.

You could just carry the brains and a cable with you since most people already have a tv somewhere you could borrow.

One less thing to break, too. If the tv goes bad just get another. No need to take it apart or go to a shop to have the display fixed.
