This was a cool looking unit, and maybe enough inspiration for me to design something similar. Would love to see it with everything there plus implementation of a real IEC port to hook up a printer/disc drive. That would be perfect. It did support real carts right? I’d stick some kind of disc accelerator on that baby.

Blown away by the price it fetched – that it went to a worthy cause is icing on the cake. You know what I’m thinking? SNES and Genesis laptops!

That has to feel good – something you built with your hands fetched that high of a price and it benefited an awesome charity.

Wow. $6,000 bucks.

I’ll just cross my fingers that someone REALLY liked this particular charity, and didn’t actually want the laptop that bad.

You should just auction ALL your stuff Ben. I can’t imagine you sold the first one of these for six thousand dollars.

congratulations to the mystery buyer… To bad his bid was too high for me otherwise I would be the lucky winner of this silent auction. I hope this unique c64 laptop will get a good home.
