CDTV64 sales count... - comp.sys.cbm

Has anyone heard how many units of the joystick have sold so far? I ordered mine Saturday and hope to get it by Wednesday. Just curious if there had been an estimated count of units sold yet. :) Dark Vulcan RC-BBS SYSOP telnet://renaissancecitybbs.dyndns.tv:23

That's quite some accomplishment. I'd never thought it would have been so successful. These good news leave space to a C-1 success as well - given it'll be sold under the Commodore brand. Congratulations to those who worked on it and the guys at Commodore BV. Riccardo

A dutch company listed at the > Euronext Stock Exchange, Amsterdam. Robert Bernardo knows very well who owns the Commodore brand. Most of us do know this already. I think I mentioned it enough times that we all know VERY well. If you want to be nit-picky - Commodore International BV owns the mark and since Tulip is the parent company - thus owns Commodore International BV - they therefore own the Commodore brand but if they divest Commodore International BV - then they would loose ownership of the brand because for one it is registered in the United States under Commodore International BV.
