In Memoriam: Commodore Business Machines
Ten years ago today, on the 29th of April 1994, the onetime USA computer giant Commodore Business Machines declared bankruptcy. Commodore UK and Commodore Germany persisted a few more months, until the Amiga rights were sold to the German concern Escom and later to Gateway 2000. Today, the Amiga OS rights belong to KMOS, the trademark belongs to Amiga Inc., and the Commodore rights and trademark to Tulip Computers.
