There was an odd exchange between Commodore and Atari personnel in the early '80s, with a group leaving from each company to found startups that were ultimately acquired by the other company. Presumably part of the premise of this alternate history is that the conditions leading to this exodus/swap were averted and the new generation was funded and controlled directly by Commodore and Atari.
