If you want more context to the story I recommend the following, fascinating book. https://www.amazon.com/Commodore-Company-Edge-Brian-Bagnall/dp/0973864966 ht

  It's great, and the two follow-ups are also out (less interesting for people mostly interested in the 8-bits, though Commodore kept a staggering amount of 8-bit R&D going way longer than they probably should have spent money on it; a lot of it going nowhere) Commodore: The Amiga Years Commodore: The Final Years (Note that there's also an older edition - "On The Edge, The spectacular rise and fall of Commodore" also by Bagnall. That one covers most of the history of Commodore in a single ~500 page book; the three new ones are ~500 pages each; which one to prefer I think largely depends on how much you care about Commodore and/or whether or not you're only interested in a particular subset of its history - that said I don't regret having bought and read both the original and all three new ones)
