Nice photos! You have a great collection!

I know there are people who really like CDTV but I have always thought it was a colossal waste of time, money and effort by Commodore. It wasn't a good computer, it wasn't a good game console, it wasn't a good stereo...it just wasn't good at anything. Then you had the absurd price ~ $1000.

For me, CDTV is the symbol of the beginning of the end of Commodore. It was a product nobody wanted, nobody bought, and ate a tremendous amount of resources that could have gone to products that people really wanted.

It should have been an Amiga 500 with a CD-Rom designed for the lounge.  They were wrong to take out the games ports etc and get rid of the Amiga branding.  It also should have had upgraded graphics and sound.
