Back in '86-'89 I worked part time in an Amiga store owned by my business partner.  The rest of the time I spent coding Amiga programs.  One of the best parts of working in the store was getting to look at demos of new software.   Some of the crap people sent us they were trying to sell was beyond words!

A lottery number picker in AmigaBasic.  You know... I could have written something better in C in under an hour!  Probably the first program the guy ever wrote.

I don't remember what this other program was called but the literature with it said it was the greatest thing ever created... once you tried it you'll never know how you lived without it.... blah blah blah.... and we loaded up the demo and never could figure out what it did!!!!  LOL  At least 6 people looked at it trying to figure out what it was supposed to do and not one had the slightest idea.  We figured it was just a little too fantastic for mere mortals and didn't order any.
