The Falcon is more powerful, of course. Only a raging fanboi would say otherwise. And no, I'm not an Atari fan (the horror!).

Stock yes on paper.
Not on paper, it really is more powerful:

No Amiga can do that with a 16 mhz 68030.

But their OS is just a load of Tosh.
That's software, not hardware. Doesn't count.

The A1200 is still the cooler machine, of course, but it's not more powerful.

Guys, don't be fanbois, please, it makes us look bad.

Lack of chunky mode meant that the A1200 sucked donkey-balls in 3D.
Lack of chunky modes is the least of your concerns when dealing with real 3D.

Plenty other fields were a stock Falcon was utterly useless compared to a stock A1200.
Didn't I say that the A1200 is the cooler machine of the two?

Can't you guys just admit that the Falcon is more powerful and move on?

What does the Atari ST have to do with any of this?
