That's silly.  West Chester had layoffs too; it wasn't just Los Gatos.  In
fact, engineering in WC had several prior rounds of layoffs, though the
earlier ones managed to generally trim the fat without interfering with much
anything that was being developed.  But I think the fact that Amiga had only
this one round shows complete company support for the Amiga.  But they had
to be realistic of the size of the staff -- Commodore's just had two quarters
of great sales, but they were still loosing money.  The company was just 
too big.
