Amiga Multitask

[MiAmigo]

I don't have an A1000, but I do recall that fateful day of seeing one in Marshall Field's (former Macy's-style department store in Chicago.) It was the very first time I'd ever seen a real photograph displayed on a computer monitor screen, at a time when PCs could only do green or amber text on a muddy brown screen!

I also saw my very first *ahem!* 'adult' themed movie vignette, stored on an Amiga floppy, of all things! (But not in the store, lol!)

That's not even to mention the amazing games they used to squeeze on one relatively low-density floppy!

Multi-tasking, true gaming animation in full-color, Video Toaster...if the A1000 had been allowed to evolve as PCs have plodded along till this day, we'd live in a much different, much better world!

Hi was Windows 95 not one of the first "good" Windows?

My personal vote would actually go to Windows 98SE. Windows 95 did introduce a new, much more sleek and streamlined interface, which became the de facto standard for a long time, basically changing over from the clunky old 'kindergarten' style of 3.1.

Are there 2 versions of Windows 98?

Yes, 'SE' stands for Second Edition.

I have a sizable home network (over 20 machines and notebooks) of various ages. On each one, I run an OS comparable to that machine's age, anything from Windows 98SE and DOS (on one machine, for old games) to Windows 7. I ran W2K for a long time until I discovered Windows FLP. XP is still running on a number of my machines and its generally rock-solid, insofar as dependability goes.
