@vaartis @disarray oh okay.

The original reason for its existence was "what if there was a super charged Commodore 64 that can do x, y and z? wouldn't that be cool well I'm making it."

This is a niche product. Arguably for what it is it is way too expensive but it's still interesting. most of the complaints on the blog post are that it's pointless because you can use a MiSTeR and that what they said it was "for" has changed over time. I don't find these very compelling, a lot of things don't have a "point" they're made for tinkering and that's good enough. As far as the purpose changing over time, I agree that's stupid but it doesn't make the hardware less cool.
