Please support this project. The stories behind how Irving Gould made his money and how Commodore UK made a success of an otherwise global rotten corporate mess need to be told.

I'm looking forward to hearing the Commodore story from across the pond!    
It should be a far more optimistic story than the U.S. story during the Amiga years. It was Newtek with the good products for the video market and nothing else other than business power play! Dave Haynie and the engineers were the only saving grace for Commodore's US effort and the management still managed to mess it up and cancel the A3000+ with DSP :-(

It could have done with some stretch goals!

How about a mini A500 Batman Pack eraser/pencil sharpener or a poster of "CD32: To be this good will take SEGA ages!"
