Do you think that the Amiga 1000 is a beautiful computer? Have you ever actually LOOKED at an Amiga 1000? The people that created the first Amiga computer was so proud of it that their signatures can be found molded inside the top plastic cover. Even the keyboard is sculpted and has the colorful Amiga check mark logo on it. I can well remember when the legendary Amiga 1000 was first released in 1985, just six months after the release of the Atari 520 ST computer. Apple and Intel were trembling in their boots. They could not believe the awesome power of this new computer. I was there in that large group of people when the first Amiga 1000 computer was unveiled and demonstrated. At the time I was very heavily involved with Commodore computers. I knew that the Amiga was coming, so I wanted to be one of the first people to see it. When the folks from Apple and Intel saw what the Amiga could do, their mouths dropped open. A few people even fell out of their chairs! You should have seen the looks on their faces. I was laughing so hard that my sides were aching. Apple was actually afraid of the Amiga computer and had voiced this in a later interview. Intel chose to ignore the new Amiga, thinking that their own IBM PCs were more professional. Ah, those were the good ol days. The Golden Age of the Personal Computer war. Everybody was wondering which computer would win that war, thinking that their own would be the victor. OH, the legend of the Amiga 1000 professional computer, how beautiful she really is.
