1854.0. "Commodore boings back!" by ROMULN::MYEE (Boycott Styrofoam cups, save the ozone.) Fri Nov 04 1988 16:29

    Some good news about Commodore.  Now if only DEC could do as well
    now.  May be DEC should have made a deal to sell Amiga instead of
    Tandy PeeCees?
    
From the Vogon news service:
    
 Fiscal news - Commodore
 Commodore - First quarter net climbs 52% as turnaround continues
   First quarter net income rose 52% to $9.6 million from $6.3 million a year
 ago, when the company had a $1.3 million tax credit. Sales rose 15% to $200.2
 million from $173.9 million. Commodore's chairman, Irving Gould, said the
 latest results reflect significant expansion in sales from Commodore's
 expanded product mix in its line of Amiga personal computers, the MS-DOS
 personal computer compatibles and the traditional C64/C128D computers in
 Europe, North America and Australia. The results also reflect a higher profit
 margin and better control over expenses, he said.
