Windows OS did not catch up to the AOS until XP. Win 95 was a crashy bloated bit of junk. 98 and 98SE were improvements but still couldn't reliably run professional multi-media apps with out trashing or loosing data. Only by constantly backing up data and rebooting or recovering from crashes could you proceed. Even Mac was far superior than win. When XP arrived, it finally had enough guts to do the job. That's when windows "caught up".


Now, when did I know Amiga "had lost"? That was in 1993 when windows 3.11 for workgroups was released. The writting was on the wall. Amiga had a short time to respond and couldn't. Instead, by the time win 95 was released they were well on their way to bankruptcy.
