The name of "Commodore" origin
i I came across with this interview with Jack Tramiel who
asked for the origin of the name Commodore 64 (Pc'89 show) thought it may be interesting for some of you..
Presenter: It was as ordinary as that was it?
Jack Tramiel: I was sitting in a taxi cab and I was trying to get the name for the company which I was building, and I was really looking to make it call it General, Id just come out of the army and I was in the army for three years and seven months, so I was looking for something strong, so I was looking for a name like General which I couldnt get because it was taken. Then I was looking for a name like Admiral, and that was taken, and as I was talking to a friend of mine in the cab right in front of me this car with the name Commodore. I said well lets try this one. |

All lies! According to my mother and other non-computer savvy relatives and friends, it's definitely originated from the Hungarian rasta dog-breed Komondor 64:

Sounds like too much work. How about a blowjob instead? :) |

Is there a blowjob with a bad end? o_O
Well, for myself, I don't tend to cut my partner's head off after a good ol' sloppy cock sucking. |
