               Barry s. Altman (1949 - 2012)             

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      We are saddened by the loss of Barry S. Altman (founder of  Commodore USA and designer of the C64x), who died on December 8, 2012  after a courageous, year long, battle with cancer. His passion for  Commodore, his optimism and can-do attitude were infectious. He will be  remembered as a man of depth, warmth and intelligence and we are  privileged to have known him. Our condolences and best wishes go out to  his family and friends. May he rest in peace.
 
At the request of his family, the news of his death was not announced to our internet following at the time.

Moderators response was swift and adequate.Thread name was changed and comments that could be taken the wrong way were removed.

I also think that thread should be used for offering condolences and then closed.

Future of CUSA and trademarks can be discussed in another thread.
