Find out more about the competition between Apple and Commodore in a 
new book, "The Spectacular Rise and Fall of Commodore". At least twice 
in their history, Commodore discussed either purchasing Apple or 
selling themselves to Apple. Apple and Commodore not only fought each 
other, but they occasionally cooperated, such as when Commodore 
engineer Chuck Peddle (the 6502 inventor) helping Steve Wozniak bring 
up his Apple computer in his garage.


The Spectacular Rise and Fall of Commodore is a detailed history of

44 hours of interviews with Commodore engineers and managers.
