I would like to say something here before the wake begins and all the nonesense on usenet goes into full tilt. Let us try to be a bit different here. Let us try to wait until the fat lady leaves the stage before we all cry in our beer, Dr. Pepper, or what have you. I think the people on CIS are of a higher caliber and can see the positive side to all of this. I may well be wrong and it is "over". Then again, I could be right and there is some hope for the Amiga computer. So here it is. Liquidation of assets has the possibility of meaning someone picking up the technology without picking up Commodore's debt. Something that any perspective buyer would _want_ to avoid. Commodore publically stated they were over 140 million in debt, many people believe the debt to be much larger. If this is true, no one would buy Commodore with it's debt load. It just wouldn't make sense when it was clear they were a sinking ship. Doing it this way allows the 'purchaser' of the technology to get it with no debt-load. It is not quite over yet… lets try to look for the silver lining for a bit longer ok? -mark= Otto Pilot Engaged..
