wish some of my schools got amigas. all we had were RM nimbuses 80/186 running "lemons" or "trains". bleh :-(


Yeah, me too, my "primary school" had an MSX-2, not that bad though, better than a BBC or 8086, but still...

I even wish the Amiga was more popular here in the Netherlands, stupid dutchies with their Nintendo's  :crazy:
-Nothing to see here, move along!-

I think the whole thing is just because lack of marketing and advertising. And about Amiga's beginning to become dated in the early 90's, compared to other hardware. Even if they DID make computers wich were a match for PC's of that time, or even the SNES, they wouldn't have come far by lack of marketing...

Both Atari and Commodore had these issues, they both had poor marketing and while they had good low end machines, when it came to higher end machines their specs looked a bit weak by the early 90's
