The fact that Commodore UK had the business savvy to not only stay afloat, but be outright profitable in the face of otherwise total corporate collapse proves their competence to me.
Back in the days C= UK was dwarfed by C= Germany, and the only reason why UK stayed afloat longer was because they still had huge stocks. Just like Petro's division of selling NOS A1200 was far more profitable than anything else during Gateway and Amino-Amiga.
Those guys running C= Germany ended up at Escom btw.
C= UK knew how to make alot of fuss, but they failed getting the money together for a serious bit, and buying C= would have been the cheap part of any Amiga-revival. Remember how much time effort and money Escom spent just to get the A1200 back into production and even that would have been dwarfed by the cost of actually developing an AAAA,Hombre, whatever chipset.
Bunch of megalomaniacs.
Far more interesting is what would have been if Samsung had gone through with their bid ....
