The Amiga can multi task.... but not the iPad.

[mefrlzrox]

best computer ever invented in human history.

sad that the executives don´t make it happen for everyone. PC will should be ever be existed.

@R6502A TOS/GEM was a piece of crap man! I mean REALLY BAD. Unworthy to even sweep up the Amigas OS's nail clippings. Didn't they have to abbreviate from TOSSER because of marketing concerns?

Don't get me wrong, a color GUI was something really different in '85 BUT it was still crap!

@janmansde3dede -

Amiga deserved to die with AGA chipset -they failed to update the graphics in a crucial direction, 'chunky' vs 'planar'. the technological lead was squandered.

but an A500 back in the day relative to similar machines was just incredible

@Craptron2000 PC's never can "won" the war since it was never owned by anyone ! it is a interdependent platform and thus can never die.

[janmansde3dede]

@Craptron2000 For Commodore, the Amiga was doing extremely well in Europe thanks to the huge Amiga scene (hobby stuff like making art,games, music, surfing BBS's ect) and that everybody know back then in 87 till 94 that it simply was the BEST Pc and gaming machine by word of mouth,

But Commodore international (USA) could not market the amiga in theUS and was living of the profit of the EU branches slowly starving,,, like someone was hanging on a guys pants who was hanging on the edge of a cliff.

Does anyone actually know why PC's "won" the war? I read that the reason was because businesses went for IBM compatibles and people wanted to use something they were familiar with at home. But I can't find a good explaination of why businesses opted for the worst and most expensive system available. It doesn't make sense. My father told me about the "nobody got fired for buying IBM" campaign. What did Amiga/Atari/Acorn/Amstrad/Appl­e not do right?
