The Commander X16 team just dropped a massive update at Vintage Computer Festival South West (VCFSW). The original talk was long and unorganized, so it did not get picked up by the RU-vid algorithm. However, I think there are some valuable information that the community should know, regarding pricing, availability, the financial status of the project and most exciting of all, the prospect of the second generation 'game console' unit!
The team also demonstrated the newly designed MIDI and Wi-Fi card, along with some new games and updated old ones.
