   To also start that conversation here:   
      
   What do you guys think about Christian "Perifractic" Simpson having bought   
   Commodore?   
   I can see people talking about what sense this makes all over the world,   
   because only few believe that he will be able to recreate that company as a   
   successful business that also makes profit.   
      
   However, as I understand his two videos about that topic, he has a vision of   
   bringing back what once was a company envisioning a future that has somewhat   
   been replaced with misuse of so called social media and doomscrolling.   
   Christians vision is all about bringing back the joy of science, learning and   
   experimenting with hardware and software delivered for an affordable price.   
   However, I personally think that there are already devices that do this job.   
   Arduino compatible micro controllers and raspberry pi to name only two. And the   
   latter even supersedes the long time claim of the C64 being the most sold   
   computer of all time.   
      
   I am looking very forward to whatever may come, because Christian is a real   
   retro enthusiast.   
   I am also curious about the latest cliffhanger in Video 2... so let's see   
   what's up next exactly in Video 3.   
      
   My educated guess would be:   
   A real (!) new Commodore C64 being manufactured from all new components   
   featuring parts from different individuals finaly come together - using an   
   officially licensed Commodore logo.   
   For Christian a dream becoming true.
