The Jaded Tech

Yes, we have a great fondness of memories for the Commore brand, namely the Vic-20 and the C=64.  A few years back I looked them up to see what the brand is up to and had read that someone bought the brand but not much else beyond that.

Last week I’m doing some PC installs for a company and the replacement systems looks curiously like the C-64!

The name of the company who make this was kinda sticking in my head.  Cybernet.  I had this vague recollection that was the name of the company who bought the Commodore brand.  So I decided to look it up.
