Of all the big players out there today, EA was the one that supported the Amiga (Deluxe Paint, Deluxe Video, etc).

I'm just wondering what would be the reason that the likes of Adobe and Wolfram Research not supporting Amiga? Especially in the early years when it clearly had a big technical and price advantage. Was it, as usual, Commodore's fault for not pushing for, striking deals, etc?

Wouldn't a color Photoshop version for Amiga would have been a no brainer? And as for Mathematica, I'd think Stephen Wolfram would've been impressed by how the Amiga could visualize concepts (the alternative Waterloo Maple was released for Amiga).


This was the problem every amiga user did have from 1986 to 1993 we did see amazing software package was realsed on other computers mac, pc, etc. And this was also the reason why many had to get a pc or mac to run programs like adobe programs or a web browser.

So the reason for this..... yes it was commodore that did not have the funds to support developers to make quality software so we was left with "look a like" programs.

crash less often.


Is this amiga OS we are talking about. ?
The slickest OS ever made, and the smallest ever made.

Amiga oS crashing sounds strange since I did not have this problem before I got a pc.
