Wow, did you see it was at a one time high of $3.75? Origianl CMD stock holders would have liked to see even that kind of price.

So if you used your old C= stock to wallpaper your garage, it takes 1.4 stock sheets to cover a square foot, my garage is 30feet by 36feet by 8feet tall...... almost $4K!

Now if I shreded my stock for kitty litter, and it takes 36 sheet to fill the kitty box once, and I did that once a week for 3 years...... :lol:

No, wait. I shouldn't be making fun. Sorry to those who got stuck. :madashell:

It used to be on NYSE as CBU.

My dad spent $400 on Commodore stock when the CD32 was announced. He likes to think of Amiga investments as charitable contributions. Marking it off as tax-deductible would have been too much, though. :crazy:

Doesn't look like it would take too big an investment to get a controlling stake in the new Commodore...

I heard that Prudential Insurance group and other investors lost more than US$ 300 Millions when Commodore went bankrupt.

Perhaps this event is the first proof of the famous Amiga curse.

Depends on how you look at it. This is the same C= in the sense that the McBill & Fleecy Show are the same Amiga Inc.

Well actually that is not a fair comparison on a few levels. This C= actually owns it.
