Top 3 best ideas in amiga history?

Hate to say this the OS, the hardware, the software were not what made the Amiga so popular initially.  Having games on floppy disk as opposed to cartridge is what sold more A500's than anything else and made the Amiga the games platform of choice.  Cartridge-based consoles were very difficult to pirate at the time, and that meant lots of school boys ended up getting an Amiga 500 where they could get lots of games for free, and swap with their mates at school.

Windows shutdown procedure is actually safer than Amiga's.  If your Amiga happens to be writing to disk when you hit the power (stupid, yes, but possible,) bye bye data.  Windows PC (or any other modern system) just hit the power button and walk away, the OS will clean up and shut down the system.  To the end user, it's the same, press a button.

And then you come home 10 hours later and you see a dialog box telling you some stupid little task is running, do you wanna nuke it...
