| Resum: | Crookes looks at how a once powerful and influential tech brand hopes to shine once more, including an exclusive interview with Commodore's new owner. Commodore was once one of the world's biggest names in computing. In its golden years, it sold more computers than Apple, IBM and Atari. But Commodore's fall came almost as rapidly for bankruptcy in 1994 and saw its liquidated assets sold to Escom, which went bust two years later. While the Commodore name has lost some of its lustre, people still remember its products fondly. In June this year, a few months after he had stepped down from editing the Commodore 64-focused magazine Zzap!64, Christian Simpson posted a YouTube video dubbed "Can We Save Commodore? My Biggest Project Yet!" His promise: to bring the Commodore brand back into the hands of fans and create new products. |
