I have a C64c, although I haven't found them to be very common. This unit may
be for sell as well if anyone is looking for one. Also, I too found a C64 in a
third party case that looked just like the c-64... and it also was made in
Australia. I can get this for anyone that might want this unit as well. Let me
know.
