From what I know about the quality of their computers, this may be a good thing, that the brands are taken off the market, leaving better computer suppliers the opportunity to provide decent systems in their place.

However, it will leave thousands of staff unemployed & seeking work & this is a shame.

All the directors have resigned (like rats leaving the sinking ship?) except the Chairman.

Either Emit (the factory shop) will be having a mega sale or will the company resurface under a new name, the previous one having been declared bankrupt etc?
