- AT`s cunning marketing scheme, they discovered that among the old C=
- patents that they got their hands on there was one for a time Machine.
- Aparently there was some small piece of paper attatched to it, saying
- the management desicion was that it would never sell so it was never
- produced.
- Well anyway AT have made one of them, and are going to send their new
- OS back to 1987, so that when they get to buy the machine it is the
- market leader. They then come along and say look we have this
- contract saying we bought Comodore for $10m in 1995, so if you would
- like to hand over the cash now well be on our way ;-)
-
- Well it makes more sense than some of the things that I`ve read on
- this groupe.
