    Commodore has had an interesting year. A retro-tech YouTuber got into discussions with the company and ended up buying it. I think they had plans to become a public benefit company of some kind, with a focus on openness and preserving old tech.

    I’m surprised that the Wikipedia article doesn’t have a lot of details on those recent developments from the past year

      Well, bought the trademarks at least. Commodore as a proper company hasn’t existed for over three decades, the name has just been bouncing around from one company to another.

      There’s another Commodore in Italy too though. Not sure what’s the deal with that.
