Downfall Amiga, after Commodore (Documentary)

Join PCBWay using my referral link, here is the invite -www.pcbway.com/setinvite.aspx?inviteid=575824

This video is a Long Cut of my videos about the downfall of the Amiga Computer and what happened with Commodore UK’s future plans, and the period of time Escom and Gateway 2000 owned the Amiga Computer. This period of time has hardly been covered on YouTube and I hope this becomes a great resource for people interested in the Amigas Later Life. Its a sad tale but thanks to the users Amiga lives on today!!

This video is a Long Cut of my videos about The Amiga Downfall and what happened with Commodore UK’s future plans, Escom and Gateway 2000. This period of time has hardly been covered on YouTube and I hope this becomes a great resource for people interested in the Amigas Later Life.

I research my videos in detail and all the sources are below.
