Return of the homecomputer

My collection of home computersI reminisce the old days of home computers. I’ve got my share in my time. The whole line-up, starting in 1983, in order of purchase: Oric-1, Oric Atmos, Acorn Electron, MSX-1, Atari 1024 ST+, Amiga 600HD. After the Amiga I left the home computer realm and entered the realm of personal computers.

Now Cybernet introduces a retro Commodore 64 look-a-like. An “all inside the keyboard” computer that holds everything except a display. From the side the computer really looks like an old clunky home computer case.

Although I really love the old days of home computing I can’t help to think that we really don’t need this. I will definitely not buy one of those. A laptop will be a way better alternative that also has everything on-board including a display. I’m very curious if anyone thinks this is actually cool?
