It`s not just me, is it?
Downloaded Pirates Of Silicon Valley the other day. Good show, but not a single mention of CBM or the Amiga. Also, this film backs up the famous theory that "There is nothing nasty about Bill Gates, and nothing nice about Steve Jobs."
Also, watched Micro Men on BBC Four yesterday. One of the guys from Acorn Computer actually said "We need to keep advertising like IBM and Commodore". Weren't Commodore almost infamous for not advertising? Again, no mention about the Amiga, even though they did really well in the UK.
Has there ever been a credible documentary made about computing (including the Amiga)?
Deathbed Vigil doesn't count 
Commodore did a great job advertising initially back when all it took was to run some simple ads on TV and print saying look, here's a Commodore 64 with 64K of memory, color graphics, sound and all this software for what under $600 and here is our competitors with less memory, green screens for thousands.
Then came more sophisticated marketing of the maturing computer market and Commodore didn't even bother to continue it's look how much more powerful and less expensive our machines are advertising.
Instead they shifted to limited advertising and using artsy ads to sell Amiga.
But you are 100% correct. In all but a few cases Commodore and Amiga have been wiped from computer history or only quickly mentioned as an early pioneer. I guess I'm biased but I personally think that a lot of what we can do today on computers was influenced by Commodore and many of it's computer models. I think historically, there should be more mention of it's influence.
Of course, "On the Edge" made me cry so what else can I say.
