Exactly. Truth be told, 20 years ago the Commodore Amiga was the best computer available. It was technically, light years ahead of both the PC's and Macs out there. However, being technically superior didn't mean a whole lot in the end. The Machine slid quickly into obscurity.

Good point, if it did, I think we would have switched over to the DEC Alpha chip some time ago!

With ya! I still occasionally browse the amiga forums to see whats up. Not much, usually. OS4.0 is near and one can buy an AmigaOne. The Amiga Community still lives, though mostly in Europe.
