wtf!? new commodore 64!

commodore c4 revamped

I was looking for some design inspiration today when I happened to see this link in my search results.

Seeing the Commodore 64 again made me think how it was similar to the Apple iMac, only it needs a monitor instead of a keyboard. Then I realised, the Commodore 64 was doing this from its beginnings. However, as I’m writing this, I also realised that Apple has also been doing the whole computer in the monitor thing since 1983 with the introduction of the Apple Lisa and then the following year with the first Macintosh.

I’m wondering though if you can combine the two to get some awesome processing power and two machines using the same monitor without any loss of space. Would probably require at least 3 rolls of scotch tape though.
