SILICONE VALLEY - Davie Stewart Jnr, the son of ChaserCorp CEO David Stewart, has failed in his attempt to revive the Commodore 64 computer.

		"Tell you're friends about C65," says Davie Jnr. But the C65's future, a cross between an Amiga and Commodore 64 computer, doesn't appear so convivial.

Responding to questions about his failed $1.4 billion attempt, Stewart Jnr said he was “profoundly misled” in the deal.

Insider sources describe Stewart Jnr as being confident he’ll recover the loss with a $1 billion investment in a satellite guidance system for forklifts.
