Grefu All-in-One Keyboard PC Computer w/ Windows XP System - Black (Dual Core) - Worldwide Free Shipping - DX

Check this out. Im thinking of something like this I can use most of the time as a desktop. I was thinking of building a cube pc(as small as possible) just for everyday use. So I can keep my current PC clean just for gaming...

I got the raspberryPI but.... nice to play with but not powerful enough.

Re: New Commodore64

i am seriously thinking about one of those, i am a dj, and dont like using laptops, i have a laptop as a spare, it always goes with me but doesnt get used.
i have a normal tower on its side built into a box that my, wireless mic receiver and my amp/mixing desk sit on top, then i have a bracket for a lcd, it all unpacks and turns into a stand, but getting tired of carrying it lol, i weighs a ton, so one of these babys would cut down a lot on bulk,and weight, shame no hdmi!

Re: New Commodore64

What do you use it for when you are DJing? How about raspberryPI? familiar with linux? It boots up a version of LXDE/Debian.

For a small PC. Ive been thinking of something like this. Tiny Itx pc case, desktop or tower. 2 hard drives , buy ITX cases online at X-Case

Re: New Commodore64

Simply connect this computer keyboard to any TV via HDMI or any size computer monitor and you're ready to run.

Ah, yes, well, unfortunately google took the words 'computer keyboard' and turned them into an advertising link, the full quote was from the link put on by Restless, that stated that HDMI is available on the new Commodore.
