Kinda cool but emulators are all over the place so other than the novelty of this I see little point in getting one.

I wonder what the emulation is like with these new PC C64's, and if it beats WinVice 2.3 coupled with a HardSID card.

It's still nice though, but they should have collaborated with these guys to create something a bit less PC'ish: http://c64upgra.de/c-one/

They only have a mobo that fits in a standard ATX case, but if it could fit inside an actual C64, now that would be heaven.
