| Back on July 12, 2007, after the E3 Expo in Los Angeles, Commodore Gaming had a party to celebrate their Commodore Gaming PCs that had just come out. Not only did they show off their gaming PCs, but they also exhibited a C64 and PET which the partygoers could use.
For the party, they invited several C= luminaries -- Seth "Naughtyboy" Sternberger of 8 Bit Weapon performed his music, and CBM engineer Bil Herd and engineer Jeri Ellsworth spoke. "Commodore Gaming Party 2007" can be found at

The party room at the Santa Monica restaurant was very dark, and so, the video is very grainy.

and photos of the party can be found at

Thanks for posting. It seems Commodore curse is as "successful" as Amiga curse in ruining respective companies (Commodore Gaming, CommodoreUSA...). |

I think some of it is down to the curse and a lot down to pretentious sales ideologies. For example the "it's going to sell because it has Commodore on the side/front/box".
But............
