Talk:Acorn Computers (2006)

This Company

This is a different company than acorn computers so i dont think the pages should be the same - Unknown

If this company were notable enough for an article then I would agree but considering the only notable thing they are listed for is buying and raping a trademark they don't deserve anything more than a footnote section in the article about the company that originally owned that trademark.

Too bad wikipedia doesn't have a category for wideboys,wankers&oxygen-thieves. 86.137.215.128 (talk) 21:06, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Amusingly it looks like they might be stuffed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.139.173.231 (talk) 01:05, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

I agree, this article should be a footnote Gaogier ^{How can I help?} 18:08, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Did this company ever even ship anything?

If this company didn't even make it to market, I agree with the above; this is not notable enough for separate article. If no one can confirm that they ever shipped a product, I'll post a WP:PROD in a few days.--NapoliRoma (talk) 18:15, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

I have to agree that this company scarcely meets any real notability threshold. Maybe they deserve a paragraph in the actual Acorn Computers article in a section about what happened to Acorn after the 1999 acquisition. Then, the absurdly prominent notice at the top of that article alerting readers to this historical footnote can be removed. --PaulBoddie (talk) 22:47, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
