I noticed right away that Tom Rattigan is missing.  He was the CEO of Pepsi before moving on to Commodore, and brought it from the brink of bankruptcy and made the Amiga as popular as it was, with the A500/A2000 duo coming out under his rule.  He really made a huge difference; without him, Amiga and Commodore would have died with only the Amiga 1000.  Had Commodore kept him on board, I would bet that Commodore would not have gone bankrupt and would still be around today to pester Apple and the PC industry.  

Commodore died shortly after he was turfed.
