I think this should have been re-imagining of the C64 as a first computer for a new generation of hackers. I'm thinking of a high-level, empowering, introductory programming environment in the vein of Hackety Hack or Love2D (because lets be honest, kids want to make games), running on a Linux with an easy-to-use desktop environment (Ubuntu/Unity?). The hardware would be netbook/mobile type stuff and internet oriented with SSD storage, Wifi, and HDMI for video output. No optical drive. Oh yeah, and a gamepad, the modern equivalent of the joystick. I'm too young to have grown up with a C64 myself, but to me this would seem like a more worthy spritual successor.
