      @82mhz Bil Herd‘s „Back Into The Storm“ is a fun read, albeit being weird at times. But I was entertained while reading it. David Pleasance‘s „Commodore: Inside Story“ is also worth checking out. Didn’t like his style, but gave some insights.

        @82mhz I quite enjoyed Brian Bagnall‘s "Commodore - A Company on the Edge". Some of it is maybe not 100% historically accurate (I guess none of the available books are really) but it captures the spirit of the micro computer heyday very well.
