Commodore gets bought
Commodore might have ruled the school back in the early Eighties, but the brand has barely survived the company's bankruptcy in 1994. In the past ten years the Commodore name has been bouncing from owner to owner and licensee to licensee like a hot potato, resulting mainly continuing the brand's steady slide into irrelevance, albeit a slide punctuated with regular doses of nostalgia from former (and even some current) Commodore 64 owners, as well as the recent introduction of the C64 Direct-to-TV game system and assorted oddities like the Commodore eVic MP3 player. Now comes the news that Tulip Computers, which currently owns Commodore International, is selling the whole deal to Yeahronimo Media Ventures for $32.6 million. They haven't said much about what they're going to do (they were already licensing the Commodore name from Tulip for some stuff already), but they aren't ruling out coming out with a Commodore line of PCs.
