Aside from mostly old farts like myslef who started on a C64 before going to an A1000 to an A1200, is there legs left in this ?

Surely a port to Linux and replace the desktop with something Amiga like is about the only option, short of some.tech bro investing Billions ? Somethibg like Mint but Commodore with the Amiga dekstop if they control the IP?

Us old farts are.going to die out and i havent had any Commodore or Amiga hardware for 2 decades now.

It sounds like it's still too early to know for sure. But what I picked up was a desire to bring Commodore makers under an umbrella where they can freely use the actual Commodore name and logo for their products. It could fizzle out or it could be amazing. I hope it's the latter. Anything is better than it just sitting in some VC's trademark portfolio, unused.
