    Some may already know, but Commodore fan YouTuber Peri Fractic has

    Part 1: Can We Save The COMMODORE Brand? My Biggest Project Yet
    Watch the first part of a story that's still unfolding - to reboot
    the greatest tech brand in history - as we endeavour to buy
    Commodore!

    Part 2: We're Buying COMMODORE and Bringing It Back?! Let's Buy Commodore
    The Commodore Brand has been crying out to be saved. Find out if we
    managed to reboot the greatest tech company in history!

    Apparently Part 3 will be posted two weeks after Part 2 was (so about
    12 July, 2025). Part 2 ends with a hint that a supposedly real device
    will be revealed, but don't hold your breath.

    The reality is that Commodore died decades ago. No amount of wishful daydreaming will ever really bring actual "Commodore" back as anything
    more than a nostalgic hobby and any supposedly modern device will never actually be a "Commodore".



    Apart from officially branded mugs, T-shirts and other miscellaneous merchandise, the era of Commodore has passed, and long may it be
    remembered.
