Commodore shut down the Amiga division on April 26, 1994, and filed for bankruptcy three days later. Commodore's assets were purchased by Escom, a German PC manufacturer, who created the subsidiary company Amiga Technologies. They re-released the A1200 and A4000T, and introduced a new 68060 version of the A4000T. But Escom went bankrupt in 1996.
Gateway, an American PC manufacturer, eventually acquired the Amiga brand and technology in 1997. Gateway was then working on a brand new Amiga platform. However this did not materialize and in 2000, Gateway sold the Amiga brand without having released any products.
