> An actual Commodore 256 was designed, but never built, thank goodness I have to disagree with "thank goodness". David's source is undoubtedly Brian Bagnall's "Amiga Years" follow-up to his Commodore book. He leaves out many tantalizing details. The C256, codenamed BMW, was being designed by Dave Haynie with Dave DiOrio on the team. These are really brilliant guys and they were putting together a beautiful machine that was never intended to replace the C64, mind you. It was another product family altogether.
