Was the Amiga a computer :-)
You asked for it :)
It was mostly used as a gaming platform, but it is one of the more underestimated platforms I've seen (by far the most would be the AS/400)
I remember picking up some Pascal on a friend's Amiga. That computer blew me away. I had still an Apple IIe, which sucked by comparison on all levels. Even the (then current) IBM AT models couldn't compare the speed, sound quality, graphics, and stability of the Amigas. Never owned one, but I remember my friend's fondly. Brilliant system. Took the best of unix/dos and combined it with the GUI ability of the Macintosh, even adding colors. -- kai ponte www.perfectreign.com linux - genuine windows replacement part
