Make a $12 C64! (Beating a dead horse!)

There were two C64 based products from two different companies that used the same ASIC. So I don't think the companies own the intellectual property rights on the chip.. They have the rights to their products. Rumor is that Mammoth ordered many ASICs that were never used. To bad those couldn't be released to the public for people to make their own stuff. Also there are browsers and telnet apps for the C64 Web browsers for the C64 Hyperlink http://www.armory.com/~spectre/cwi/hl/ Singular Browser http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=30400 Ethernet hardware/software for the C64 http://home.ica.net/~leifb/commodore/ethernet.html I just think that this would be a quicker solution. Or everyone can donate their C64s, but I doubt the power supplies will survive.
