Contradiction[edit]

The following is not clear:

"Betacom plc changed its name to Amstrad PLC. In 1999, Amstrad sold Betacom to Alba plc...."

Does this mean Betacom a newly created company, the "old" Amstrad or the brand? Mark83 22:01, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reading the Amstrad website, it would appear it was the Betacom-branded product lines (among others) that were sold to Alba, ie. the Betacom business, post name-change. Letdorf 12:13, 16 November 2006 (UTC).[reply]
