Commodore International Ltd, which derived $591m, 67% of its total, from Europe, is planning a new factory in West Germany to complement or replace the one in Braunschweig as part of an effort to build European sales to $1,000m by 1992: the company also plans to come out with faster versions of the venerable Commodore 64 – perhaps following Apple Computer Inc’s lead and adopting a 16-bit internal version of the 6502 microprocessor with better colour displays; the company calls Wall Street forecasts for the year to June of $72m to $75m, $2.25 to $2.35 a share, for its fiscal year to June not unreasonable.
