Commodore could never have been Apple. Very beginning of Commodore involved fraud https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Acceptance_Corporation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Acceptance_Corporatio... "one of the biggest financial scandals in Canada at that time" https://dfarq.homeip.net/irving-gould-commodore/ https://dfarq.homeip.net/irving-gould-commodore/ "Commodore was one of the Atlantic subsidiaries directly implicated in this scheme, but the commission was unable to find any evidence of wrongdoing on the part of Tramiel or Kapp despite heavy suspicion." Commodore founder Tramiel didnt care one bit if he sold typewriters, calculators or cow hides as long as he could make money by screwing people over https://www.filfre.net/2015/04/the-68000-wars-part-3-we-made-amiga-they-fucked-it-up/ https://www.filfre.net/2015/04/the-68000-wars-part-3-we-made... The moment C-64 was released whole* (except one person) design team was "let go" and subsequently founded Ensoniq. Tramiel replacements were even worse because on top of not knowing a first thing about product they also didnt know how to make money.
