Seems this was the crossroad eh? Stupid mistake branding those logos on the same piece of paper, even in the same room is bad  :griping:

analyzing this afterwards is really easy. imho they would make the same mistake again, even if they had known before.

It's for the IBM clones Commodore used to make.  I'm not sure why everyone is so scandalised.  Commodore always had more than one hardware architecture going at any given time and they used Microsoft software right from the start.

What C= tried to do was tap the business market with IBM clones, since no one ever took Amigas seriously in that area.  Sadly for them, they couldn't compete with the established brands, so they failed to generate any revenue.  Would it have been a different story if C= had backed the Amiga as a business machine?  Hard to say, as the main business software developers never took Commodore seriously anyway.

Commodore's real mistake was making a complete balls-up when it came to move things on from the A500 era.  Pretty much every single decision they made after that was dumb.

Its for Commodores pc line, the one that took priority over the miggy :-(

I thought it was for the clones but was not to sure, I no longer own an amiga, but in the slight chance it was for the miggy, I would want a copy for colection purpose only.

After all, Amiga basic was from Microsoft...

I still have the CBM disks for Dos 6 and Windows 3.1 that came with my old CBM 486 sx25.

Yuk. Makes you wanna hurl. Seems even then Micro$oft were getting their clutches around all of the computer users necks.
