Well, amidst all the doom and gloom and gloom and doom over the death
of Commodore, someone in our local User's group (AMUC) decided that
AMUC should call Commodore Canada and see what was going on, since they
are a major sponsor for AmiJam'94.

Well, lo and behold, to all of our surprise, C= Canada is very much
alive and well, and fully staffed with all 50+ people it has had for
the last three years or so.  Apparently, CIL and C= US closed down,
C= Germany has been bought by a Japanese Company (this is purely rumour)
and C= US is about to be bought by an as yet unnamed third party (this
comes straight from C= Canada, but they won't say who it is).

Also, C= UK is apparently alive and kicking (According to C= Canada) and
doing quite well.

What this all means, I don't know, but the simple fact that people are
still answering the phones at C= Canada on May 2, 1994 is good news to me!

Now I guess we all just wait and see whether any/all of this actually
happens! :-)

                                 because of a glimmer
                                 of hope.
