Looks like Commodore will have a new owner…

Good news folks. Looks like Commodore will be back! Now will Amigakit want to be a part of it?

Very interesting. An ensemble of previous Commodore execs as advisors (no Hynie by the sounds of it) and a desire to bring the separate bits of the old Commodore back including Amiga. How does that work - Amiga OS is owned by who (never been clear to me with all the courtcases - Hyperion?) And the Amiga brand - A-Eon / Amiga Kit - so many questions.

I dont understand why a bunch of old people are wanted as advisors. To advise on how things worked in the 80s and 90s? And what are they going to bring to the table as far as product development now, the whole thing just seem like some kind of PR show to me with the super cringy slogans and stuff, but time will tell.

Can we have less bigotry please in these forums.

Ageism is the stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination against individuals or groups based on their age. It can manifest as negative attitudes, discriminatory practices, or systemic biases that affect people of all ages, though it is often associated with older adults

Moderators please attend to this.
