Breakdown of amigas sold by model?
« on: February 09, 2010, 07:31:24 AM »
Google fu is weak.

Are there any reasonably reliable figures out there for how the various amiga models sold in relation to each other?

Whether in actual numbers, percentage of total sales or whatever.

Interesting that its 10 to 1 for the A500 versus the 1200, but of course it was around a lot longer.

Completely anecdotal but I knew a fair number of people who got 600's in Denmark.

Given most of the people I knew was younger, it was split between the low end models: 500, 600 and 1200.

I did know a single guy with a 500+ except, oddly, it only had 512 kb of RAM. I thought the 500+ came with 1 meg, unless it was some sort of weird prototype

A couple of sites with some sales info on Amigas and others.

The first link is interesting. Looks like amiga market share peaked in 91 at 5%.
