This guy made mistakes he shouldn't have done (abandoning the CBM-II line thus surrendering the professional market to the IBM PC and it's clones when CP/M was still relevant, making the Commodore Plus/4 and 256 that where basically lamer version of the C=64 with some utilities in ROM), thus forcing the shareholders to kick him out.
But the guy who replaced him, Commodore's main shareholder (pic related), didn't do any better: no or bad marketing, and decisions that sped down the development of the Amiga architecture. We can say that he did an even worse job than Tramiel at managing the company, making Tramiel look like the best manager ever, as he made most of his mistakes by the end of his carrier in his company, though he made some before (No disk drive for the PET before the Apple II and TRS-80? Using a Z80 as their FDD controller while Commodore literally OWNED MOS Technology, making it more expensive than the computers themselves? Why?).

Yeah, I was thinking about this modem and another one for the Commodore 64 that used the SID like it's tone generator. Too bad they' can't go faster than 300 bauds.
