Commodore.ca: The PET, VIC, 128, 64 & More Forum

I have some ideas for new hardware (that is around and available) that are somewhat backwards compatible to the Commodore line but there is a limited quantity of machines left and I'm keeping it secret so that people don't just take them because they want a computer.

If you are proven at writing compilers, operating systems or Commodore 64 Emulators then I would like to see a future but if you feel that the old technology can't compete then I understand.

I would like to be involved somehow but only if there is going to be a future for these machines.

Does anybody know if the patents to the Commodore 64 have run out?

Not sure if many people will be interested in getting those machines but maybe some who want are interested in the antiques. I think everything needs to progress with the time, no doubt commodores are a legend but nowadays people are used to working on the high performing, multitasking systems.
