It did everything way better cheaper and faster than wintel/mac. Graphics (Ham8 mode) smoked win 16 colors, Sound (Paula chip) made entire professional level (techno) albums in an era Wintel had Soundblaster 8). Games were years ahead of everything on the market.

What it did not have was a company with ethical officers who plundered it into bankrupcy. It could have ruled the world. SerieZly. It really did have it all techwise.

Yes. I remember those machines, fantastic colors and multiple sound channels, they ruled the video production arena among PCs.
