Sad news.  RIP Jack

My first computer was a CBM4032 followed by a C64 while you were still running Commodore. By all accounts you were a hard task master but, given your  personal family history (Auschwitz survivor) it's perhaps no surprise.

I  wonder how the Amiga (& Commodore) would have turned out if you had  remained at Commodore?  It will be interesting to see how the  revisionist Microsoft/Apple media commemorate one of the great icons of  the Personal computer age.
