I rather agree, especially considering the me-too iPoops that this union
previously spat forth (Yeahronimo was part of the original Commodore "music"
arm when Tulip decided to get down and dirty with their trademark).

If Tulip couldn't properly capitalize on it, then relative unknown Yeahronimo
is paying 24 million EUR merely for a chance to be laughed at by future
retrocomputer geeks.
