CommodoreUSA Partners with Disney

Gawd...

That's Disney on me hit list now... :flak:

(wonder if all their old miggies that they bought back in the 90's have broken down... they could've bought some nice ones on eBay recently... cheap at twice the price)...

Now where'd I leave that Mickey Mouse trap...

Does that mean there will be a DisneyScotland.com website in the works?

Unfortunaly, as much as many of us want to get excited about such a thing, you are really not going to get anyone to really believe it today.  Everyone will be couching their comments with "if this is true".  First thing tomorrrow, I for one will believe you.  Today?  It is all speculation.

The intereting thing will be to see how many people still doubt it if the story is the same tomorrow.  Even more interesting will be to see where things go on the 5th.  It would take some pretty big self denial to continue to doubt that CUSA is for real if they get ads in a disney release.

People keep talking about 'Custom Graphics Chips'.  There were no 'Custom Graphics Chips'.  That is just what we called GPUs back then.  Now, every PC comes with them.  Sometimes they have been integrated back into the same die, buy they are still there.  Heck, the C64x is using ION graphics.  That means that it is in fact a separate graphics chip.  If Amiga had actual 'custom' graphics chips, each of us would have one that was made just for us, and that would truly suck.  The proper way to describe the Amiga's graphics chips is to say that the Amiga had "proprietary graphics chips".
