Amiga died in 1994 with Commodore.

As much as that makes me angry and sad I can't shake this feeling lately! Waiting for her to return is like waiting for the Galactica to FTL into orbit around the earth.....just a dream :(

Not to compare apples to oranges, but the guys in the "other" camp said Microsoft was dead and buried when they switched focus from DOS to Windows.  Apple dudes said the Mac was "finished" when they switched to PPC and later to Intel.

The difference?  The clusterf*ck management at Commodore, more or less.

Truth is, back in those days computing was something different, IMO.  You had to be somewhat knowledgeable to keep one running, and that gave a sense of pride.  Computers were empowering tools, where as now most people just see them as commodity items to get **** done on.
