THEVIC20 has joined SiLLC’s retro investment portfolio

Today, Amazon delivered our pre-ordered THEVIC20 from RetroGames right on time, so it can finally join SiLLC’s retro investment portfolio.

We had to decide whether to invest in an original Commodore CBM VIC-20 from the 80s (the same question we asked ourselves before we ordered the THEC64Maxi). However, as you may know, those old machines contain old capacitors that usually start to leak after 30-40 years. So it’s always a risk to buy them, and it will add follow-up costs to replace those capacitors on the original boards.

Also, we love the idea of skipping the loading times from floppy drives (or even worse, cassette tape loading) by just loading the games from a USB stick.

Forty years later, Retro Games released its THEC64Maxi in a limited edition VIC-20 design with a PET keyboard. Great work, guys! It’s unbelievable that in October 1980, Commodore released the VIC-20 (known as the VIC-1001 in Japan).

2020 Capital Allocation revised

August 14, 2020 Sarasota, Florida – The SiLLC Assembly team revised its Capital Allocation for 2020.

Please note that this update contains forward-looking statements regarding our assembly prospects, goals, strategies, anticipated financial performance, and the anticipated impact of the pandemic on our projects and investments.

Please understand that forward-looking statements are only estimates of future performance and should be taken as such. The forward-looking statements represent assembly management’s expectations only as of today and the assembly disclaims any obligation to update them.

“The SiLLC Assembly team has decided to adjust the 2020 capital allocation according to its strong quarter and to reflect the unprecedented current trading environment,” said Markus Schronen, Board Chair, and Assembly Consultant.

Although the SiLLC Assembly can rely on its unique investment models and its strong balance sheet, the duration of the crisis requires reallocating the Assembly’s cash situation to protect its plans and future operations.

Strict control of costs and investment capital has been implemented.

“On behalf of the SiLLC Assembly’s members, I would like to thank everyone for their commitment and resilience. Their health and wellbeing, as well as those of all our followers and friends, must remain the key priority. I am confident that the decisions aimed at mitigating the situation and protecting the long-term financial position will enable the SiLLC Assembly to act from a position of strength when this crisis is behind us,” said Martin Schuetz, Assembly Leader.
