is it really THAT big deal to get it in the US?
Well, in the end it's vice working there, what I've been told.
Even on a tiny board.

But you can do it yourself. You can take a C64 from ebay, put out the mainboard
and put in this adapter:

There are also many adapters from 9-pol joystick to USB

Then the C64 is a usb keyboard. You can use it with VICE on Linux and
AFAIK also Windows or you can put amibian on a rapsi III.
With the command "getbonuspack" you will get vice and others to amibian.
(without you will have the amiga emulator which is also not really bad)

AND you are not "locked by default" to the given multi Joystick.

I know, it's not "THEC64" but maybe a nice alternative feeling similar.
