Das Buch ist eine Freude. Unglaublich präzise recherchierte Geschichte […] spannend, voller bizarrer Anekdoten und erstaunlicher Einblicke in die Frühzeit dieser Branche. Allein wegen der unglaublichen Biographie von Jack Tramiel lohnt es sich […] auch der Abstieg Commodores wird liebevoll aber unerbittlich nachgezeichnet.— Spiegel.de

Die Geschichte des Computer-Pioniers Commodore — erzählt von den Insidern, die C64, Amiga und andere Hardware-Meilensteine schufen: Volkscomputer ist eine abenteuerliche Reise in die Zeit, als die Großen der Branche ihre ersten Schritte wagen und mit Commodore-Gründer Jack Tramiel und seinen Ingenieuren die Waffen kreuzen. Partner und Gegner sind der junge Bill Gates, der Ende der 70er-Jahre MS BASIC vermarktet, Apple-Visionär Steve Jobs, Ataris Nolan Bushnell und andere Macher, auf dem Weg ins 21. Jahrhundert.

Im Ringen mit IBM, Texas Instruments und Apple, Microsoft und Atari wird Commodore zum Marktführer an der Schnittstelle zwischen PC- und Videospiel-Sektor. In Volkscomputer sprechen die Erfinder von PET, VC-20 und Amiga, geniale Ingenieure und Tüftler, deren Technik nicht nur in eigenen Geräten steckt, sondern auch im Atari VCS und im Apple II, dem ersten Grafik- und Spiel-PC. Später übernimmt Nintendo die Chips von Chuck Peddle & Co.

Der Commodore-Historiker Boris Kretzinger und Winnie Forster erweiterten das Standardwerk von Brian Bagnall um Personen-, Firmen- und Spiele-Index, technische Tabellen sowie einer Foto-Galerie der Commodore-Geräte — von den späten 60er-Jahren bis zum Ende in den 90er-Jahren.

Great for smaller dogs
Size: Small
These two balls are perfect for the smaller mouthed dog that loves to play fetch. These balls are not only super durable (lots of teeth biting), but float in the baby pool we use for our miniature dachshunds. The value here is much better than you’d find anywhere else. The noise, if bitten hard enough, was “low” at best. Easy to spot/find if overthrown. Will definitely buy again once these are in bad repair; so far, so good-love these for my fur babies!

My dogs favorite balls
Size: Medium
These are great for my dog who always has to have a ball in her mouth. Not too hard so I don't have to worry about her teeth. They last for ever. They do lose their shape a little over time (like I said, she always has a ball in her mouth) they become a little oval in shape. They still bounce, she still chases it and she still chews on it so I don't think she notices or cares. I've gotten her a bag full of these over time and I have only seen one that she chewed a chunk out.

My Dachshunds Love These
Size: Small
These balls are durable, flexible material, highly chewable without being easily destroyed. I stuff them with Milkbone Maro Snacks, which are just the right size to twist into the holes in the ball. My dogs literally get an hour+ chewing and chasing entertainment from these. They chew them, they sometimes 'pop' out of their mouths, go rolling across the floor, dogs chasing them. This satisfies their urge to hunt prey. Dachshunds can easily tear this kind of stuff-it-toy apart. These have lasted for a long time without tearing or shredding. I would NOT recommend them for a dog much larger than a tweenie weenie. They're a bit on the small side and might be swallowed by a larger dog. It would be cool it they also came in a larger size (and probably ball wall thickness also) for the bigger dogs to enjoy. These stuff-it chew balls are better than the kong balls my dogs had before these. Highly recommend them.

My puppy’s favorite fetch toy!
Size: Small
Update Aug 27, 2024: After 10 months, these are still his favorite ball. He’s obsessed with fetching and plays with them all day. They do bounce really high. Unfortunately, the small size aren’t available for sale anywhere anymore. I tried the medium size, and he has a bit of trouble hanging on to them, but he manages. Weirdly, he prefers the orange one, but he also plays with the blue one. My 7 month old Shih Tzu puppy loves to fetch, and these are his new favorites. They’re small enough to fit in his mouth, and they are made of hard plastic, so he’s able to hold on to them. They have a lot of bounce, and this adds to the fun for him. I highly recommend them.

Genuinely bummed that these great balls can’t stand up against my Chloè.
Size: Medium
I love all the Chuckit brand of balls. I found that the Strabo and glow balls in the Chuckit line are the softest, and as such, don't last as long as the rest of Chuckit line of balls. Having said that, they do last longer than than every other brand I've tried (and I do believe I’ve tried every brand available on the market today.) The strato balls do bounce higher than any of the other balls in the Chuckit line. They really are a good value.
