Quote:"Indeed, quite apart from the validity of reverse engineering, there's the thorny question of who actually owns the core C64 firmware. While the Amiga was sold off as brand plus technology, Tulip only bought the C64 brand. Now no one knows who has the rights to the firmware. Suing for brand infringement is the only weapon Tulip and Ironstone have - they can't fight on copyright infringement grounds."
I read somewhere (comp.sys.cbm??) that Gateway bought the rights to all the MOS stuff.
