There was also a movie, I guess where Dave Haynie did the very last day at Commodore (I can't find it now on YT).
Funny how the history of computing happened here in easter Europe (Poland in particular, but Id love to hear Hungaraian, German, Czech, Austrian history too).
My first computer was C116 in '86, Then C64c in '88
In 1994 I bought Amiga 500 on 1994! then one year later A1200 and did my first year at university with A1200 and Pascal and later C programming on non expanded Amiga with no HD - a nightmare if you ask me. 
in 1990-94 we had no internet nor even computer magazines aware that C= is going bye, bye... We've learned that by ourselves when some news arrived... too late.
I had to switch to PC and ... Linux (Slackware) 1995/96 as it was very popular at Computer Science students back then. I never regret that.
now we have "back to retro" time which is also something very important to me. And if you ask me about my plans than the answer is:
I plan to do more on all my beloved C= platforms, in particular order: C64, C116, Amiga
Peace!
