Posted on A.org by Matt_H. Very interesting read. As Matt_H said on his thread, makes Commodore seem like the pinnacle of management excellence!

I quickly skimmed through the article and I totally agree with you.

It looks like all these tech giants have, sooner or later, their personal nemesis!

@A1200

When I started reading that link, I was still middle aged, by the time I got to the end I was older than Bilbo Baggins...

But it was worth the read as it definitely makes Commodore look like they had the perfect business model and despite going belly up they really were at the forefront of the computing business...

Now I just need to find similar stories about Microsoft & Apple and then I can sit here forever with a smug look on my face saying to myself, ha... I knew it all along...

Strange how stories about other peoples misfortunes always makes us feel better...

PS: Today is my one hundred and eleventh birthday... at least it feels like it after reading all that...
