News from the UK May 4, 1994
The following information was obtained through a phone call I had
with the editor of Amiga Shopper on May 4, 1994. All information came
from an Official Press Release faxed to them earlier that day.
"Commodore International has filed for protection from creditors
in the Bahamas."
"All production, distribution and normal operations will continue
as normal for the next few weeks. At that time another press release
will be made."
The current roomer in the UK is that Commodore is in discussion
with Samsung about purchasing the company.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN???
Our favorite computer will still be in full production for the
next 3 to 4 weeks. I view this as a positive sign.
If Commodore were going to cease to exist, production would have
been stopped and lay-offs would have taken place. The only lay-offs
at the present time are in West Chester.
As for the rumor, Samsung has recently announced that they will
introduce a CDI, 3DO, and 2 CD video modules late in the year. CD32
would be another good choice if a company was looking to dominate the
CD video industry.
Look for further posting, as I will try to reach CBM Canada in
the near future.
