“The book is great, I have been recommending it as a must have for any Commodore or Amiga fan! Quote me ?
Rob Crane

“A refreshingly and brilliantly written insight into the world of Commodore as told by Mr Commodore himself David Pleasance, whom shares hilarious stories of what it was really like to work for the biggest selling computer company in the world.                                                                                                                       If you only read one Commodore book, this will not disappoint you”  Rob Crane

Having been a huge Amiga fan and developer back in the late 80’s and 90’s, the collapse of Commodore was felt very deeply. David’s book “Commodore: The Inside Story” helped to put the whole saga into context and explain how such a tragedy can happen and affect so many people. David’s writing style is easy to read and whilst I am not not a big book reader, I finished it in three sittings. Whilst the first half explains the highs, lows and mistakes across Commodore and the potential buyout that could have saved the Amiga, the second half has some fascinating stories of the other people involved inside and outside of Commodore. I cannot rate it high enough.” Steve Jones

Hi David,
Just a quick email to let you know that I couldn’t put your book down!
I started reading on Saturday, late evening, and continued reading until 4am when I finished it and decided it was time to go to bed!
It was definitely worth the wait.
I also very much enjoyed the sections from all the various Amiga people too. A fascinating insight.
Many thanks for all the effort you put it to create an such an excellent book.
All the best
