|  | Case Design |  |
| The case designing had been worked out by Ira Velensky, who also designed the Commodore 116 case. Ira moved to Atari in the mid-80s and was the designer on the ST and XE computers as well.
Bil Herd says: "The design [of the Plus/4] was by a guy named Ira Velinsky who worked out of the Tokyo office. He had designed the case for the DEC Rainbow prior to coming to Commodore. Sadly Ira passed away on the return trip from a CES show some years later." |
