David Morse

David Morse is the co-founder and badge #1 of Amiga Corporation. He was previously Vice President of sales and marketing at Tonka Toys in Mound, Minnesota and had a dual MBA in Electronic Engineering.

While at Tonka, Dave saw video games as a new form of entertainment and a game console as a new toy. He was looking to represent Nintendo in America and Canada. However, others in management wanted nothing to do with video games. Instead, they wanted to continue focusing on die-cast metal toys. He and other marketing people would leave the company, several of which wound up working at Amiga, most notably Don Reisinger.

Dave sold one of his Porsche cars to keep the company afloat when they fell on hard times, starting in late 1983. He would also prove to be a calm, yet persistent negotiator during the sale to Commodore in August, 1984.

After Amiga, Dave would rejoin his former employees at other technology ventures.
