Commodore users will be left high and dry again...

Shame. The Wii releases (despite being expensive) were a step in the right direction. Not sure about silly covers on PCs adding an absolute fortune to the price - just another bad business decision to add to so many from the last fourteen years...

Why wont they realize Commodore is a dead brand? They're just whipping a dead horse.

It would be better for a big company to buy Commodore and make it a small-time revenue with memorabilia and such - not expecting big cash, just so for keeping the legend alive. I would do it if I had much money to burn or hide it from tax office. :lol:

I agree, however Atari brand is looking a bit sick too at the moment. After what feels like years of threats, Atari have finally been handed a delisting notice from the Nasdaq stock exchange, after the company failed to raise the $15 million in market capitalisation it needed to stay the executioners axe. An appeal's already been lodged, citing parent company Infogrames offer of a total buyout.
