Haha. That _was_ a floating keyboard. - Micah

The Amiga was so ridiculously overpowered for its price compared to competitors at the time. In '87, the 500/2000 were going up against The Mac Plus/IIx/IIci/IIse which were incredibly expensive and still inferior from a multimedia perspective. VGA had just only been introduced in 87 and could still only do 256 colors. Commodore was so incredibly corrupt and inept that they, IIRC, lost the original source designs for the chipsets, so when they introduced the Amiga 1200/4000, they had to reverse engineer the old chips. - Ray Cromwell

Commodore was incredibly adept at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory... - Joel Webber

Had to reverse engineer their own chips?! Wow-just-wow (thanks for the insight, Ray). - Micah
