I've personally followed and bought Commodore stock since 1981.
From 1981 to 1984, they had split many times at different ratios.
The last time they split was 1983 or 1984.  It went as high as
U$54 +- U$1 and dropped to U$10 quickly (over 1 year).  It stabilied
at U$7 for several years afterwards.  I actually do have charts
somewhere of the stock prices if people are really interested.
