Well, this was rather unexpected. As it turns out, Commodore USA's CEO Barry Altman isn't particularly pleased about the article I wrote earlier today in which I placed a considerable amount of scepticism with regards to Commodore USA and its business (and website). He (not his lawyer) sent us a threatening email demanding we take down the article, post a new correction article, the whole shebang. The entire email - as an image, you'll want the original formatting - after the break. Our reply? We refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram.

Yeah, I've known about Cybernet for a very long time, all the way back to the late 90s when I was asked to diagnose a problem with a POS system based on one. They are great little machines, packing a lot of punch into not much more space than a laptop.
In fact, the model I worked on back in the day was a marvel of size/performance ratio for its time. A desktop-class machine on a five-inch-square board in 1998, more powerful than most laptops yet with a smaller mainboard? It was genius!
I'm glad to see the company is not only still around, but doing well and still making very powerful keyboard-PCs.
