Yyep, this site is actually great. Took a good part of the night away :-|
Such a website on the history of the Amiga would be way, way more sad. And will have much less contributors. To get an idea of what the Amiga team guys were doing while the Mac team were breaking though, see the deathbed vigil, a movie made during demise of C= US. Not a merry sight, you've been warned.
It's even more bitter when you read what the Mac team was accomplishing (wow !
Two apps at the same time !), and think that the Amiga garage was not very far away, where a smaller
team was going even faster.
S. Jobs sounds quite obnoxious when you read the story of those days, but at least he cared. 9$ a 68000 !
Indeed, to read the diary of exec dev. under the very pen of
Carl Sassenrath would be delightful, but I'm not holding my breath.
From many standpoints, the Amiga is the saddest tale one could tell. I could cry just by thinking about it too much, so I don't. Really.
