Tulip is a weird one. All they bought was the name, and then promptly allowed
it to be diluted by a wild string of office supply parts (a Commodore paper
shredder appeared a couple years back) and their inferior line of PC clones.
I actually have a "Commodore" PS/2 mouse connected to the 486 laptop.

Gateway, on the other hand, holds all the 8-bit rights as well (someone went
out and confirmed this). So, if it was part of the assets transferred (John
Foust makes a good point, it might not be), then Gateway has it -- they have
just about everything else.
