After almost a year of development, the uSTAR64 Computer-Board has finally seen the light of day.
Next to the uHeld64 the uSTAR64 is the next handy C/64 computer, but with the possibility to use a bigger display.
Due to the slightly wider shape, a flatter design of about 2,5 cm was possible, and consists of only one board. An appropriate housing can be created even with a 3D printer.
