Please be aware, not everything you read is factual.  Obviously the statements
that appear in the referenced article are inacurate, as can be seen by the
considerable efforts we are making in working with software developers to 
create products for corporate environments and in our hardware developments.

Commodore will be sending a letter to the editor of the publication as a
rebuttal.  The article was rather positive and factual with the exception of
that misquote.
