\r\nRemember the golden days of computing way back in the early 1980\'s? You know, when 8-bit microprocessors ran at a mere 1MHz, when 64KB of RAM was considered a lot, and when people still used compact audio cassettes to store data? The Commodore 64 is one such home computer from that distant era, and after more than 28 years is ready for a comeback. Here is an excerpt, courtesy of the Arnnet website:\r\n

\r\n\"The Commodore 64 was a home computer running on an 8-bit processor released by Commodore International in 1982. The computer was one of the most popular models of all time, selling close to 17 million units between 1982 and 1994, according to the Computer History Museum.\r\n

\r\nThe revamped computer will be available through the Commodore USA online store, which is set to open June 1, according to the company\'s Web site. The computer will be an all-in-one keyboard, with Intel\'s 64-bit quad-core microprocessors and 3D graphics capabilities, according to the site.\"\r\n

\r\nThe decorum includes a sword rack, medieval chandeliers, hidden strobe lights, and even fog machines for that extra ambiance. The room apparently also has a complete library of every D&D game ever published.\r\n
