Commodore Rumour Mill
Commodore are renowned for their "security problems" that allowed almost
every single Amiga magazine to find out about the latest Amiga's even before
the staff did. Who could forget Commodores denial of the existence of the
A3000
30 minutes before it was launched? However, the prototype boards were often
renamed at a later stage. Here is a list of the Amigas mentioned in magazines
and their final names:
