Those specs are a little innacurate. 1024x768+overscan on aga ? X68030 also had 16 bit color (65536 colors) onscreen. Im sure there's other errors there too, but it's too late and Im not interested enough to find them  :)  As much as Id like to say otherwise, there are some areas that the amiga was completely humbled in vs. some of the other machines of the day.
Not that I care too much,... I love the amiga regardless.
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Crumb,

I'm honestly not trying to give you a hard time but allow me to comment:



I'm not sure what you mean by this statement.   AmigaOS requires a number of custom chips to function properly.


I think what he means is exactly what he said. Draco ran OS3.x without custom chips ( as does amithlon). Not sure how that could be made clearer.
