maybe they decided it was better to show the technological backwardness of what was available and the amiga woiuld have easily showed up even the enterprises computer
Hey KT,
I'm going to lead my self to believe that they just wanted the machine (i.e. the MAC) Scotty was using to represent the acient technology of the 21st century. Had they used an Amiga it would have blown the whole scene, because the Amiga would have spoken back to him when he was talking to the mouse. "Hello Computer".
By the way in case many of you were not aware, Scotty aparently did travel back in time to bless us with his wisdom.
