Commodore could have been like Apple is today.
Oh my goodness, please no. That would have been utterly horrendous to have two companies making products with planned obsolescence of less than one year.

Mick Tinker and Alan Redhouse for me! They could both do wonders with limited resources!

@polyp2000

We are all "old" aren't we? A ridiculous overreaction to a fair comment if you ask me! I think what he was trying to say was more in line with the now deemed politically incorrect advert for Kia-Ora where all the crows want to get in with the gang by pretending to be the kid's dog to get some of that sweet sweet orange drink! To have all these people coming out of the woodwork to basically answer the question, "What would Jack Tramiel have done?" is a bit backward looking TBH! I mean even Atari had to but a modern spin on the Atari VCS when they relaunched it!

Maybe we do need a Thomas Rattigan type character from Pepsi to keep all these misty eyed nostalgia biased people on the straight and narrow? We've got RGL for these sorts of products and I don't really think a 6% C= licensing tax is going to open the flood gates to better products! The problem is going to be defending the IP not getting Bll Herd's input into how we could launch a product like the C128!

THEA1200 is now down for a Q1 2026 release! I couldn't care less if it has C= on it but I would like to see the 'A1200' trademark freely usable on products licensed from Amiga Corp! Is that too much for an "old" man to ask!  ;)

Are you planning to make overclocking available for the A600GS as well, or will this feature remain exclusive to the A1200NG?

I was serious, so to rephrase, I dont understand what hiring original staff is going to achieve (I didn't specifically mention old people now), unless of course you want to make retro stuff, but having watched both videos I really dont understand what direction this is meant to go. The vision is that the modern world need a sort of reboot from before social media became invasive and so on, so how are they going to achieve that, that's pretty bold. On the other hand at least is owned buy someone who wants to do something, but from the info being give so far I have noe clue what that is going to be.
