- Seems unlikely. If Nintendo had purchased Commodore (1) the stock price
- would have jumped (2) The Wall Street Journal would have published the fact
- and (3) I'd have received a notification and proxy for the meeting at which
- the merger would be voted on (I'm a shareholder). Since none of those
- things have happened (unless I've been napping re. the WSJ article) I
- suspect this is just a silly rumor.
