I was pretty sad to see this too.
So many people owe Chuck gratitude for the introduction of a great, low cost processor that allowed so many computers and consoles to be built around it. I grew up with the Commodore 64 (and then the 128 and then the Amiga). My parents would not have spent the money for the Apple line but the Commodore line was much more affordable (and better). It opened a whole new world for me as a kid. I suspect many had the same experience.
Thanks Chuck! RIP Sir, you have earned it.
