Before smartphones, laptops and game consoles there was a piece of history that remains in people's minds and hearts for the joyful memories. The Commodore 64 was at the beginning of the 80's the platform for entertainment that any kid would want. It was a portable keyboard with the hardware inside that could be plugged to your television in the living room. Unfortunately bad market strategies and poor leadership caused the company to close. But this did not stop fans from worshiping a piece of electronic history and in 2011 is expected a re-launch of a more modernized version. One of the newest version is called the Commodore VIC Pro that has a more modern appeal with many updated and upgrades, from DVD player to SD card slots and USB ports. The evolution of a 'new' product comes with an average price tag of $600 and other versions that promise to rethink the concept of the personal computer.

According to Commodor's website there are plans to revive the Amiga series with the models 1000, 2000 and 3000. The design looks modern and futuristic enough for a major comeback to compete against other hardware names.
