Well, that uncommon 64 is just a regular 64 stuck into an aftermarket
case that came out about the same time the 64C did. (So the people with
the old ones could match the new peripherals, etc.) Tenex used to sell
them in their "64/128 Everything catalogs" for about $25 or so and I think
they were called a Kangaroo or something like that (Had a triangle or
somehting on the case)
