Amazing, I agree. Amazing number of factual errors.

Among others: the 68000 is 32-bit, not 16-bit. And before you all start screaming: it has a 16-bit BUS. Specified as a 16/32-bit CPU by Motorola. And is code compatible with the rest of the 680X0 serie which are all 32-bit processors. Try finding a 32-bit CPU which is code compatible with a 64-bit one. Not gonna happen.

And the hype that the Atari was such an incredible music wonder is just nonsense. It all originates from that built-in MIDI interface, which is just a fancy way of saying it's serial interface had the $10 adapter built-in. Which ofcourse was widely available for the Amiga.

Intel - the worlds greatest manufacturer of it's own products :-D
*Zap! Zap!* Ha! Take that! *Kabooom!* Hey, that\'s not fair!
