It's really a fantastic book about the history of Commodore. But it's a little spooky, when you see the photo of Tramielski you will understand! :-D :-D

One of the questions I am asking myself is how did Irving Gould get in control of the company when the information on the web says that he invested $400,000 in Commodore for return of a 17% share of the company?

The book is great... I've just read it two times.
It is just surprising the amount of stuff one could compare to today´s companies.
There were some situations in Commodore that are quite similar to things I´ve seen in companies I worked for. Almost Dilbert like.
One example: we came up with a really nice product that was different from anything else in the market, but a competitor told our director it was not a really good idea and it was canceled. Another competitor had the same idea 2 years later and sold a lot. Just like the Commodore LCD :-D
